Everyone is coming up with smartwatches. Even watchmakers themselves! Casio, one of the first to integrate a Bluetooth connection into watches is now letting it mirror notifications from your smartphone. And it is a whole lot sexier looking than say, a Galaxy Gear for example.

The STD-1000 is designed to double up as a fitness tracker, and will piggyback on your smartphone's existing motion sensors. It takes advantage of the BT low energy profile to stay in constant contact with your phone without nuking the battery.

You can also put notifications for messages, emails and phone calls and use it as a wireless remote for your phone's music player.

At launch, the watch will support Abvio's Runmeter, Walkmeter, and Cyclemeter apps, as well as Wahoo Fitness giving wearers easy access to metrics like distance, elapsed time, and even cycling speed.

Plus it looks this good. [Casio]
