A special Black Ops edition is also available due to high demand. This edition has a different bezel surface treatment to give it a distinctive black look – Black anodization. A woven stainless steel Milanese strap adds a feel that while this watch looks good, it’s also up to whatever task you need it.
When you take the Powerwatch off, it uses a small battery to keep itself asleep. Once you out it back on, the device switches itself back on and starts from where you left off.
