You’ll also get an altimeter and modern conveniences like automatic time updates. The battery should last up to a year on a charge, too, and you can recharge it using solar power. Tissot is asking around $1,100 to $1,200 — not a trivial sum, but the company notes that the Smart-Touch should still be useful as a watch well after the phone integration stops working.

The launch isn’t a total surprise: Swatch already said that its smartwatch plans would be modest, and it’s just following through on its promise. However, the question is whether or not the brand will continue on that path. After all, both traditional and upstart Swiss watchmakers are putting their names on more advanced devices. While Swatch doesn’t have grand expectations (it plans to sell just 20,000 to 40,000 Smart-Touch units in the device’s first year), there is the risk that it’ll seem behind the times if its peers embrace smartwatches in a big way.
