Mont Blanc is the latest luxury watch maker to make the leap to smartwatches, and the Mont Blanc Summit is the firm’s first in this arena.
It arrives with a Snapdragon 2100 chipset under the hood, Android Wear 2.1 on screen and Sapphire glass protecting the display from scuffs and scratches.
At €890 (around $960, £775, AU$1,250) it’s more expensive than the Android Wear watches from the likes of the LG and Huawei, but it’s comfortably cheaper than rival Tag Heuer’s new Connected Modular 45.
It terms of design the Summit is pleasing to the eye. It reminds us of the LG Watch Urbane with its reflective metal chassis mirroring your surroundings and lifting from the wrist.
If anything though, it’s too similar to the Watch Urbane – a smartwatch a quarter of the price – and considering the Summit is made by luxury firm Mont Blanc that’s a little disappointing.
