The Oskron is the first hybrid smartwatch powered by VeliGear platform that combines the look and functionality of a traditional watch with abilities that are evident in today's smartwatches. Discreetly housed in the casing of a classical timepiece is technology that keeps tabs on your daily activity, provides traveller with local and world time/weather, turn-by-turn navigation, in addition to hot keys for Camera/Music control/Find My Phone features and even a sophisticated mechanical compass. Of course, the watch handles smartphone notifications seamlessly. The HealthKit is used to synchronize step counts in the activity mode. The heart of the analog is not a traditional movement but a state of the art "triple bidirectional gearbox", which means the developer can configure the traditional watch hands (hour, minute and second) to do much more that telling time (e.g. compass and event alert). Smart and discreet, Oskron is the smartwatch of choice for anyone who appreciates the value of complications in a traditional timepiece, yet, enjoys the functionalities of a day to day smartwatch."
