Nissan Nismo Smart Watch Concept

Hot on the heels of the Samsung Galaxy Gear smart watch, Nissan has announced their take on the fastest growing segment in the watch industry, the smart watch.  Officially the watch is called the Nismo Concept Watch; it will probably make it into production.  The watch will be shown at the Japanese automaker’s stand at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

What makes the Nismo smart watch different from others is its ability to connect to your Nissan cars (the GT-R, 370Z Nismo, and Nismo Juke).  The watch connects to the car via an app on your smart phone, using Bluetooth LE (low energy).  The smart watch gives users data such as top speed, fuel consumption, when it’s time for maintenance, and of course heart rate!  Of course you need your heart rate monitored when you’re driving high-powered cars like the Nissan GT-R.  Now if you’re a social media addict, fear not, the watch will come with the ability to post statuses on your Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, etc. accounts.  This will also make it easier for the cops to see information about your 150 mph run on highway 😉

The Nismo watch looks like a big, one piece bracelet with an LED screen, it looks like it came out of the same assembly line as the iPhone.  It comes in Nismo black and red paint scheme, but it will also be offered in black or white.  The watch will come with a micro-USB port for charging, and according to Nissan, the battery should last for 7 days on one charge.

No word on prices yet or whether these watches will actually make it to production.  Via: Nissan
