Fossil has today launched its latest Gen 5 smartwatch in India. Running on Wear OS, the smartwatch cuts across the various watch needs for those looking for fashion accessories or a clean and elegant professional add-on, and those who love technology.

Google’s Wear OS platform has been in the lurch for a while now, in part due to a dearth of good smartwatches, and in part due to shortcomings of Google and Qualcomm in the hardware and software departments. The Fossil Gen 5, though, is likely to be the best that the platform has to offer at the moment.
