Like a timeless pair of shoes or a smooth signature scent, a man’s watch reveals much about him. In today’s connected world, smartwatches have become the new alternative to family heirloom timepieces. With the variety of smartwatch options on the market today, with a little research, you can rest assured that you’ll maximize your investment and shatter your health, fitness and productivity goals.
From Swiss chronograph-inspired timepieces to rugged outdoor performance options, there’s a smartwatch for every guy, and every occasion. So, how’s a guy to choose?
Start by deciding how you’ll use your smartwatch. Are you Android or iPhone-loyal? Most smartwatches need to be paired with your smartphone and will run on the same operating system (OS). For Android users, Wear OS by Google boasts Google Assistant, Google Pay, and access to a selection of apps on the Google Play app store. iOS loyalists can expect watchOS 7 to deliver the latest health, fitness and productivity tools, complete with access to Apple’s app store. Keep in mind that while smartwatches can do almost anything your smartphone can, the only disadvantage is that they have not yet evolved to fully replace smartphones.
To help you weigh your options, we’ve listed some of the best smartwatches for men to invest in now.
