Huawei unveiled new Huawei Watch variants aimed specifically at women at CES 2016. The Huawei Watch For Women, consisting of the Elegant and Jewel, offer the same specifications as the original models feature a rose gold-plated finish with decorative crystals or a knurled pattern effect around the dial, smaller 10mm wristbands and 10 “exclusive feminine” watch faces.
Huawei announced at the time that both would go on sale starting in March in countries already offering the original model. (including Canada and the U.S.). Both have now appeared on the Google Store. Neither can be ordered yet but they are “coming soon” to the U.S., suggesting it may not be much longer before orders can be placed. Unfortunately, that “coming soon” label does not show up on Canada’s own Google Store.
A chic, classic timepiece crafted with high-quality materials and the latest smart technology.

There is no official word yet on specific Google Store availability and pricing for the Huawei Watch for Women. The Huawei Watch Jewel is expected to sell for about US$599 (about CA$800) and the Huawei Elegant for US$499 (about CA$660).
