Android Wear Watches 2017 Line-Up Now Includes Luxury Models From Designer Brands

New Android Wear watches 2017 line-up will now feature SmartWatch models from luxury designer brand GC. While some SmartWatch models are quite stylish, not all are considered as luxury timepieces.

Design brand GC is hoping to change the idea of gimmicky tech-savvy SmartWatches into timepieces synonymous to luxury. According to AndroidAuthority, the new Android Wear Watches 2017 line-up from GC is called the GC Connect.

The GC Connect's design will take cues from the company's stylish GC Structura models. The GC Connect Android Wear Watches 2017 models will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 processor.

GC is also upping the ante of the luxury factor of these SmartWatches by including various options for straps, from subtle silicone to stylish crocodile leather. Of course, GC isn't the only designer brand investing into the Android Wear watches 2017 line-up.

According to Engadget, designer brand Guess is also taking a plunge into the SmartWatch market. The Android Wear watches 2017 models from Guess is aptly called, the Guess Connect.

The Guess Connect features 8 distinct styles, three of those aimed for Women while five are designed for Men. Like the GC SmartWathces, consumers can expect quality timepieces that befits the luxury of the Guess branding.

Like the GC Connect model, the Guess Connect will also feature a similar Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 processor. While most of these Android Wear 2017 SmartWatches feature similar specs, their luxurious aesthetics vary depending mostly on the designer brands.

Guess already ventured into the SmartWatch market in the past, but most of the previous designs do not look as luxurious as their upcoming Guess Connect line-up. Still, it is good to know that even classic and luxurious timepieces are getting a new-age tech upgrade as well.

The new range of SmartWatches from designer brands might signal the start of other designer watch companies to jump into the fray. This will certainly help Android Wear 2017 SmartWatches in getting a wider audience, and in the more sophisticated high-class market too.
