What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This wrist watch announces the time, date, day, and alarm time aloud when you press a button, and also includes a built-in pedometer that speaks your step count, calories burned, and distance walked — including results from the previous day. It's designed for people with low vision or blindness who want both timekeeping and basic fitness tracking without needing to read a screen. The watch is self-contained and ready to wear — atomic timekeeping means it syncs automatically for accuracy and handles Daylight Saving Time changes without manual adjustment (only initial time zone setup is needed). The watch ships in sleep mode, so you'll need to wake it up before it functions, and the time zone must be set manually on first use.
