Fossil Smartwatch + Wear OS by Google

The last time I wore a watch was when I worked in the neonatal unit at my local hospital. It was basic at best, and an accessory I never wore outside of work. When smartwatches emerged, I found myself intrigued by the technology that fused everything I love about my smartphone with those crucial fitness activity features. Fossil recently introduced their new Gen 4 Venture HR Smartwatch, and it is so much more than a pretty “face.”  

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product.

Gen 4 Venture HR Smartwatch

The look of this smartwatch is impressive. The classic design features a rose gold-tone stainless steel bracelet that looks beautiful and feels durable. Plus, you can customize the watch face to match your outfit for the day.

Set-up is intuitive and simply requires a quick download of the free Wear OS app. The watch fuses some of the best fitness tracker features with the most frequently used smartphone features to help you stay active and connected.
