Garmin recently released the 'Vivomove,' a stylish fitness watch that looks more like a classic watch than the more modern designs that can be seen on most fitness watches today.
The watch can track calories and monitor the user's sleeping patterns. While it doesn't have a heart rate sensor like most fitness watches on the market, the watch has a Move Bar that is now located at the front of the watch as a reminder to stay active. The stylish fitness watch has a gender-neutral aesthetic, making it wearable for everyone. It comes in three separate styles (sport, classic and premium) that all vary in cost.
Wearable fitness trackers have been dominating the fitness market for some time now, but those who prefer a more classic look rather than a futuristic one can sometimes be left in the dust. Garmin's Vivomove offers a solution to that problem.
