Victorinox Night Vision Watch Is Built To Last A Lifetime
Swiss watches are known to combine elegance with technical advancements. Victorinox Night Vision is yet another such swiss army watch. It’s a good value watch with high build quality. With 11 LEDs tucked inside its case,making it glow in dark. The dial visibility is really good. Hands and numerals are also coated with luminescent paint. LEDs are 3 in colors:White,Blue and Red. White LED for prolonged illumination mode,signal and intense signal. Blue LED for the back-light mode dial. Red LED for user location and end of life of the battery. A button on the left side of the gunmetal gray steel case. Push it once and the dial is illuminated in a bright cool eye-pleasing blue light at 12 o’clock. Push it twice and an LED at the top of the watch casts a piercing white beam out in front, enough to light a trail, a driveway or a dark closet. The light stays on for two minutes, or until you press the button one more time. Press and hold the button and you get a flashing strobe, perfect for signaling a friend in a dark forest or across a lake. And the final is the pulsating super-bright strobe for intense signalling. Three hands and date are driven by a Ronda quartz 705 movement. It won’t lose more than 10 sec or gain more than 20 sec per month. The Night Vision uses 2 batteries to separately power the quartz movement and light functions.

Apple Watch
Our most personal device yet. That’s what Apple like to say about their latest launch Apple Watch. The rumors of a smart watch from Apple have been doing the rounds since neanderthals stepped foot on earth or the dinosaurs, I’m not sure. Apple finally revealed Apple Watch in Cupertino on September to much appreciation and applause. The watch features a digital crown which manages the magnifying function on such a small screen. The crown on the Apple Watch can be used to zoom into apps by rotating or you can scroll seamlessly with it. The crown acts as a button as well and pressing it brings the device back to homescreen.
Apple has a created a tailor made OS for the Apple Smart Watch. The watch features a retina display polished with sapphire crystal which is the second hardest substance after diamond. The watch brings you every information on your wrist. You can glimpse the weather, next meeting in the calendar or your current location. It brings you all the notifications of mails, messages, calls instantly to your wrist. Even, the traffic conditions are a touch away. Siri is closer than ever, you can just raise your wrist and say, “hey, siri” and speak your query. Siri can dictate your messages, give navigation directions and a whole lot more. The Apple Watch also features a heart rate sensor and measures your daily physical activities. You can set your targets for activities and it will reward you when you achieve them.
The device taps you on your wrist when you receive a notification. You can also use this feature to share your heartbeat with someone, they’ll feel your heartbeat on their wrist. Apple has kept the charging very simple yet innovative. You simply need to hold the sealed connector near the back of the watch and it snaps onto it with the magnet in the connector. The watch comes in two sizes and three editions – Watch, Watch Sport, Watch Edition( polished with 24K Gold). Winter is Coming, so is The Apple Watch.

The watch is a celebratory product for the 130th anniversary of Victorinox.

It went through a mind-numbing 130 tests, out of which 30 were designed just to ratify that the watch is going to last a lifetime!
This Hulk of a watch can survive a 10 meter fall on a concrete surface or get trashed around in your washing machine for two hours. Not just that, it can live to see a 64 ton big a** tank run over it. It can survive a sandstorm, in case you decide to visit the Sahara. Inox watch can tell you the time even after being subject to 12 g-force which is equivalent to maximum turn in a fighter jet and more than what Apollo 16’s reentry felt like. Wait, It can also sustain temperatures ranging from -51 to +71 degrees, but we hope you never have to be in either of the condition. Inox is not just a watch but a life companion. The watch is a homage to the the rich 130 year history of the company. The word ‘Inox’ translates to ‘Stainless Steel’ in French and the watch is named aptly as the watch’s case has been stamped and machined in steel. The feature list does not end, this juggernaut has a single sealed peace dial and stamped indexes. The horns are protected and solidified by a crossbar and even, the crown is protected as is the crystal in the dial with an elevated bezel. To top it all of, it comes with a replaceable bumper protector made of silicon and nylon. The dial and strap will be available in black, khaki green and navy blue. Inox celebrates 130 years of Victorinox with 130 brutal tests to make it last at least another 130 years.
