Samsung last week unveiled its latest smartwatch, the Samsung Gear S. It has now unveiled a “Swarovski for Samsung” version of the 3G connected smartwatch’s strap. It uses a new Swarovski product called Crystal Fine Mesh and is adorned with Swarovski cut crystals. The crystals are in fact integrated directly into the Strap’s metal mesh “making it one of the most exclusive products in the Swarovski assortment.”
“One of the key aspects in wearable devices is providing diverse options for consumers to freely express their own taste and style,” said Younghee Lee, Executive Vice President of Global Marketing, IT & Mobile Division at Samsung. “Our ongoing collaboration with Swarovski as demonstrated in the new Gear S Strap, allows us to stay ahead of trends and on the cutting-edge of design and style.”
