Second of all, if your going to buy an expensive watch make sure the company is a good watch company that has been making watches for years. Eg. Guess, Fossil, Kenneth Cole, Swatch. Not Sony Ericsson.

- Sony Ericsson made this with Fossil (read before you judge)]]>Oct 28th 2006 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 3:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 29th 2006 3:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/
Simple idea, why does no one think of it. One could even add a speaker phone behind the face if you're really desperate to not wear a bluetooth headset.]]>Oct 28th 2006 2:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 12:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/
"You have to like big watches to like this sucker, but it has a classy, professional look if attached to an equally manly wrist.

The phone comes in one size, macho. So if you're a scrawny little wimp like me, you'll need to get a jeweler to remove a few links from the band."

I would definitely fall into that category. Also, I think Sony really botched it by not including the ability to display song info. Perhaps due to battery life?

Bottom line: slimmer, song info, and non-SE compatibility and I would probably bite.]]>Oct 28th 2006 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 2:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/I guess that rules out 99% of the male readers on this site! ;)]]>Oct 28th 2006 2:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/
Secondly, anyone who thinks Fossil is a quality watch brand needs to do some research. "Guy" and "Alain", I thank you for your comments but Gio is even further from the point he's trying to make than he thinks. Kenneth Cole? C'mon. Those are all fashion watches, pretty outside with average parts inside. They went to Fossil because SE doesn't have the assembly line to crank out watches and because Fossil watch buyers are into contemporary/ fashionable/futuristic watches. Two birds, one stone.

This watch is meant for business professionals who don't want to be rude in front of clients by going through all the motions involved in pulling their phones from pockets or bags while discussing business. A quick glance at your watch tells you who may have called, if you have messages without oissing off your client. That's it.

Oh yeah, and style is in the eye ...blah, blah, blah.

Apparently, Conrad's statement about the watch being too bulky clearly shows his lack of contemporary style.

Also, regarding GUY's comment to GioNYC:
"- Sony Ericsson made this with Fossil (read before you judge)"
I'd like to say to Gio...You might as well change your name to CD-R 'cause you just got BURNED!

there is also a company around now that sell induction pads for charging. if this watch had a built in coil, it would a simple thing to drop it onto the pad at the end of the day and have it charge over night.

if one is lucky it can use the same charger as most SE phones, and comes complete with a splitter or something so you can change both phone and watch at the same time.

in the end im glad SE tries something like this as so far all we have seen that comes close to this are some old concepts from motorola and similar.]]>Oct 28th 2006 6:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/Oct 28th 2006 6:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/28/sony-ericssons-mbw-100-bluetooth-watch-reviewed/
