I'm Andrew coil for CNET and I'm here
taking a look at the Asus den watch is
the first SmartWatch from Asus running
Google's Android wear software for
smartwatches
physically it's quite an attractive
piece of kit you can see here that it's
got this quite slim metal body and it
has an attractive curved display it's
got a leather hand-stitched strap as
well which has standard watch
connections so you can swap that out for
any strap you like it's water-resistant
but not waterproof which means it can
probably put up with a bit of hand
washing in the sink but you shouldn't
take it swimming turning on Android wear
so you'll have the same a cards
interface that you'll see on watches
like the Samsung gear live or the LG G
watch but Asus has added in a few its
own additions like a wellness app which
tracks your activity and apparently your
mood throughout the day as well as his
own SmartWatch manager there's no
official word on pricing or indeed
availability yet from Asus but it has
said it expects to be going on sale
later this year for around 199 euros
