“The big brick on the wrist is not what a fashionable person is going to wear on a day-to-day basis,” says Cindy Livingston, CEO of Sequel. That’s especially so for women, she says – many of the existing smartwatches are simply too big for their wrists.

GUESS Watches has always been at the forefront of fashion and trends around the globe. Our most recent partnership with Martian Watches has fused fashion and technology to create a true smartwatch for every GUESS guy and girl. We debuted our Connect watch at CES, one of the world’s largest consumer electronics shows in the world, in January. Our GUESS Connect Smartwatch was named as a 2015 CES Innovation Awards Honoree.

Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers and members of the trade media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 28 product categories.

The winning models from our new multi-function, fashion smartwatch line, designed to include models for men and women, are based on our global best-selling style Rigor.

This boldly styled smartwatch is powered by Martian technology and  is updateable and replaceable, to keep GUESS Connect watches fresh and relevant for years to come. The goal of this new smartwatch collaboration is simple and powerful: to bring intelligent features and functionality to a very popular fashion watch – making a watch that can remain relevant, classic and valuable over the coming years.

The GUESS Connect Smartwatches will uniquely house a fully-contained Martian module that sports a microphone and clear audio speaker and allows users to connect to their smartphone’s resident voice command app, so wearers can give voice commands, talk and listen, and respond to texts directly from the watch. In addition, using the free iOS & Android App, users can customize which notifications are received on the watch, create unique vibration patterns to distinguish between alert types, and recall the most recent notification with just a tap of the watch glass.

“The GUESS Connect Smartwatch, represents one of the first true marriages of a fashion watch powerhouse and a wireless technology innovator,” states Cindy Livingston. “We are thrilled to move in this direction with a proven technology innovator with previous CES Innovations Awards to create smart, GUESS designs.”

The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)®, the producer of the International CES, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technology, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.

Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech products and services coming to market.
