Customizable watch Noodoe is advertising itself as the opposite of the Apple Watch. Ideal for creative personalities, the DIY wearable is an extremely adaptable piece of technology. The timepiece combines the usefulness of a smartwatch with what's being described as the "maker movement."
Even though Noodoe looks like a regular fitness tracker, its interface can be totally customized. Using the accompanying app, users can build and personalize watch faces by dragging and dropping designs. Preset symbols are available for beginners, where as experienced creatives can start from scratch. The finished product can also be shared or downloaded by others.
The self-expression-promoting wristband is motion-sensitive as well. Wearers simply turn their wrist over to move between face panels.
