Fans of Chrome and Android are going to want to buy a set of Google Watches. Created in part with Modify Watches, these timepieces are no-frills but do let you rep one of the biggest names on the web on your wrist.
The Google Watches come in Chrome, Android and "Google" and are all analog in design. The watches also come with customizable straps and sell for a price cheaper than what most watches go for today ($59). This isn't Google's first foray into fashion, and it's doubtful that it will be their last. Google hoodies and watches aren't exactly appearing in boutiques across the world, but I wouldn't doubt the company setting its sights on fashion once it has conquered the Internet and the smartphone market.
