THERE ARE MANY practical advantages of wearing a smartwatch, but for many watch enthusiasts, most of the options available simply don't pass muster as a "real" watch. Salt to injury, smartwatches endure relatively short lifespans due to rapidly outdated technology while luxury watches last decades, often passed down as heirlooms. Rare is the connected watch that has managed a balance between soul and technology; in the Montblanc Summit 3, those of us who are watch snobs might finally find a smartwatch worthy for our wrists.
Departing from typical modern design of most smartwatches today, the Summit 3 conveys European sophistication elegance emblematic of its high-horology cousins. All the craftsmanship of a Swiss timepiece with the smarts of a digitally connected experience courtesy of Google's Wear OS 3, the Summit 3 is the first non-Samsung smartwatch that works with Android and iOS. Furthermore, with its always-on stamina, we finally have a bonafide digital timepiece with the "power reserve" of your basic mechanical watch.
