A watch is a functional piece of art that is a reflection of the wearer’s sense of style. Traditional watches are becoming a thing of the past, considering that most people are apt to check for the time on their smartphone before looking down at their wrist. That is why more and more companies are veering towards an interactive approach. Smartwatches like the Fossil Gen 4 Venture HR Smartwatch, sold at Best Buy, easily adapt to society’s changing needs.

The Fossil Gen 4 Venture HR Smartwatch is a multi-functional watch that adheres to my style perfectly with its sophisticated appearance. Its beautiful design and customizable watch face make it versatile enough to blend in with a multitude of outfits. Compatible with Android and iOS smartphones, it functions as a health monitor (tracks distance, calories burned, heart rate, activity, and steps taken + floors climbed) as well as a gorgeous timepiece.

I’ve been mostly using this smartwatch lately to track my steps, especially during my nature walks. Motivation is the key to achieving health goals and this is where this smartwatch steps into play! It helps give me the motivation that I need for achieving my daily goal of at least 10,000 steps. That’s not all! This watch is also swim-proof and able to play stored music during my walks.

In addition to functioning as a fitness and health monitor, this smartwatch also helps boost productivity by maximizing your time. This is all thanks to more glanceable, easy to manage notifications as well as smart replies to respond quickly on the go.

Fossil’s Gen 4 Venture HR Smartwatch is undeniably chic and sophisticated, featuring a rose-gold-tone stainless steel bracelet.
