The Nevo is a smartwatch that combines activity tracking and phone notifications but using a minimalist analogue design.
In order to track activity goals this smartwatch uses eleven bright white LED indicators which have been embedded around the névo dial. These are used to measure goal progression and to give feedback of your activity level in order to motivate you. “Just a touch of the button and you will know instantly how close you are to achieving your goal of steps, distance, or calories burned.”
Managing your daily activity with the Névo is done by setting a daily goal with the included app and the Névo then does the rest. Powered by a swiss ETA movement the Nevo syncs with a phone using Bluetooth and uses dual watch batteries and never requires charging. The first battery powers the Swiss timekeeping movement for 5 years or more. The second battery powers the Névo smart features and lasts 6 months or more. Both batteries are inexpensive and easy to change and the Nevo comes with a battery replacement tool.
The Nevo comes in three variants, New York: Blacksmith case with Coffee strap, Shanghai: Champagne case with Blueberry strap, Paris: Granite case with Truffle strap – all pictured below.
Orders are being taken on the Indigogo page and the Nevo will be will be available for delivery worldwide in early 2015.
