The Huawei Watch ULTIMATE DESIGN beautifully breaks new smartwatch ground
Huawei is on a mission to build groundbreaking and innovative smartwatches and while it’s already made some of the most technologically impressive timepieces, it’s also shown its abilities to drape seriously stylish watches on your wrist.
Step forward the Huawei Watch ULTIMATE DESIGN, which redefines what a high-end smartwatch should be, that merges the very best of Huawei’s cutting-edge smarts with a design, that means you’re not strapping on a run of the mill smartwatch. It’s bringing a truly fashion-focused edge to the very ethos owning a connected watch. This is a luxury smartwatch that shows off the sort of craftsmanship that’s going to appeal to true lovers of the very finest things.
Building on the launch of the diving-friendly Huawei Watch Ultimate in March earlier this year, the ULTIMATE DESIGN emerges as Huawei’s first-ever gold smartwatch. Front and centre is a nanocrystal ceramic bezel matched up with six segments of 18k gold to give it that truly premium look and feel. That 18k gold theme continues through to the watch crown that’s been carved with diamond tools to show off Huawei’s exquisite design artistry with a triple mesh chain strap that extends that effortlessly stylish look of the ULTIMATE DESIGN.
Huawei compliments that luxury exterior with an equally lavish home to place the ULTIMATE DESIGN when it’s not peeking out from your shirt sleeve, letting you drop it inside of a sleek black leather gift box packed with a plush brown interior to keep that premium gold body nicely cushioned.
That 18k gold-heavy design is fit to live on land and in deep waters with Huawei delicately crafting a water-resistant design built from 16 water-resistant structures that allows the ULTIMATE DESIGN to withstand extreme deep-sea pressure. Along with a strong 10 ATM water resistant rating, it’s also certified to join you on diving expeditions to a depth of 100 metres. This is a smartwatch for those that don’t like standing still, appealing to that inner being to explore, tackle the elements, to go far and wide and truly embrace that spirit of the outdoors.
Beneath that sleek yet rugged exterior lies the smarts that showcase Huawei’s rich feature set and that it continues to be a lead innovator in the smartwatch space. Whether you’re pairing it up with an Android smartphone or iPhone, you’ll enjoy access to Huawei’s Precision Dual-Frequency Five-System GNSS to give navigating new terrain a major accuracy boost, while an all-new Expedition mode is built to make sure you can find your way home on big hikes, letting you mark key waypoints, all while preserving the ULTIMATE DESIGN’s 14-day battery life.
If you prefer 18 holes to dodging potholes on a big hike, you can also brandish the ULTIMATE DESIGN for a round, with its raft of onboard golf features serving up plenty of performance data and is also handy when you spend a few hours down the driving range and want more detailed swing stats.
The ULTIMATE DESIGN can fully unlock a more sophisticated approach to monitoring health throughout the day and night with consummate ease, using Huawei’s groundbreaking high-precision ECG and PPG sensor technology to detect irregular heart rate rhythms and arterial stiffness. It can also effortlessly monitor your SpO2 levels and stress throughout the day and deliver rich sleep stats when you jump into bed without you needing to push a button. The ULTIMATE DESIGN is wearable that stands above others when delivering those life-changing monitoring features.
When you’re not trying to track your treks or glance at heart rate stats, this is a smartwatch that takes a very slick approach to letting you keep an eye on all of those important notifications landing on your paired smartphone, make calls over Bluetooth a breeze if you don’t have a hand spare to grab your handset and gives you access to Huawei’s Watch AppGallery to quickly stock up on apps to bring more skills to this luxury smartwatch. It also makes sure you have a nice collection of watch faces to choose from to suitably compliment that high-end 18k gold exterior.
So not only does the Huawei Watch ULTIMATE DESIGN give you a luxurious, beautifully crafted smartwatch that’s draped in gorgeous 18k gold and showcases impressive watchmaking, it also makes sure that it’s got the rugged qualities and trailblazing features inside that make it a formidable smartwatch powerhouse that looks like a supremely gorgeous timepiece.
