Originally launched in Europe, Withings’ ScanWatch Horizon smartwatch has finally hit the shelves of the United States. Unlike most of its previous connected health products, the ScanWatch Horizon can be considered a luxury wearable device, not only because of its higher price, but also because of the rare components used in its production. The ScanWatch Horizon has a sapphire crystal housing with an anti-reflective coating and a luxurious finish. The smartwatch comes with a stainless steel rotating bezel with laser-engraved markings, alongside concave Luminova hands, indicators and thick indexes that allow it to be used in low-light conditions.
Although advertised as a health-focused smartwatch, the ScantWatch Horizon is also perfect for divers. It has a water resistance of 10 ATM, making it suitable for swimming, snorkeling and water sports. Not to mention that users can track all sports activities through the connected Health Mate app. The smartwatch allows users to take an EKG even underwater.
