LG Watch Urbane Luxe 23-Karat Gold-Plated smartwatch announced



LG announced a special limited edition of its luxury Android Wear smartwatch, Watch Urbane, called the LG Watch Urbane Luxe. It features 23-karat gold-plated body and has been made in collaboration with US-based Reeds Jewelers. Only 500 limited edition watched will be made engraved with its own serial number for authenticity.

The watch comes with a gorgeous alligator leather strap and sports a deployment clasp for a fitted elegant look, which makes the watch more exclusive and unique. It is based on the technology of Louis Cartier in 1910. The alligator band is handcrafted at the highest level of craftsmanship undergoing 50 separate steps in its creation. It comes in an "exclusive piano-gloss lacquer case."
The 23-karat gold used in the LG Watch Urbane Luxe is stronger and harder than the 24-karat gold used in jewelry and heavier than the 18-karat gold used in traditional luxury watches, said the company.  The technical specification of Watch Urbane Luxe remains the same as Watch Urbane
