If you fancy wearing a watch with the good old miniature clock-face display; the hour hand and minute hand on it, then you may be thinking of the analog, mechanical, quartz, or automatic watches that have been around for ages.
While many people who embrace technology are starting to use smartwatches, there are a class of watches known as Hybrids. These watches bridge the gap between the conventional wrist watch and the modern smartwatch. Classy, with technological ease.

The elegance and analog aesthetics of the Q Tailor may disguise the fact that the watch you're wearing is indeed a hybrid smartwatch. This one helps track your activities such as your calories burnt, steps and distance. This isn't a touchscreen watch and therefore the controls are the buttons on the right.
Set your goals, your alarm, and your 2nd time if you travel to a different time-zone often. It even alerts you when there are incoming texts from your phone. Compatible with Android and iOS, the Q Tailor has a battery life of up to 6 months.
The Crewmaster provides analog time and a bezel for fitness tracking, 24-hour time viewing, and multiple alarms. Sync your Android or iOS phone with this watch to take photos, control music, and receive notifications. It's compatible with Android 4.4 (KitKat) and iOS 8.2 and newer.
