Move over Moto 360: Check Out Withings Activité Watch

So far only Motorola’s smartwatch Moto 360 has gained the title of being the most stylish and attractive smartwatch in the market but Withings Activité is going to steal its title. Withings Activité Watch is not a typical smartwatch and neither it’s a conventional watch.
The French company’s new watch has computing brains to track steps taken, calories burned, distance travelled, and sleep patterns. The watch, for starters, has an analog dial, with real hands unlike typical smartwatches. Like the Moto 360, the Withings Activité features a round face and it also features a sapphire glass touch screen and heritage tannery leather watch straps.
The watch also has strong water resistance and can go underwater for depths of up to 50 meters.
The Activité also builds in a second dial on the front of the phone that tells you how close you are to reaching your daily fitness goal. It looks mostly like a classic watch. Its chrome and round, available in black and silver, with an analog face and a classic design. You might never know there’s anything else inside the Activité were it not for the second, smaller dial in its bottom-right corner, known as the activity dial.


Specifications
The one hitch with this gorgeous looking device is its price: At $390, it’s a lot pricier than other smartwatches we’ve seen released over the last year. Although it’s major competition will be Moto 360 which is rumoured to be launching at a price of $450, even costlier than Activité.
