Gen 6 Wellness Edition: new version of the brand's smartwatch

Fossil has previewed a new version of its Generation 6 smartwatch with its upcoming wellness edition. The watch will be the company's first Wear OS 3 device and will also launch with a new Wellness mobile app. The Gen 6 Wellness Edition will be available on October 17 and will cost $299.

Despite a new name, the Gen 6 Wellness Edition looks like every other Gen 6 smartwatch the company has produced in the past. The latest model will be available in a 44mm silver case that will house a 1.28-inch OLED screen. As for performance, the clock will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon Wear 4100 processor and will be paired with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory. In addition to silver, there will also be two different color options: Nero and rose gold.

With the launch of the new smartwatch, Fossil will also debut with a new Wellness app. The new app will provide the usual fitness and health monitoring, but some areas will get a boost thanks to the app's use of SpO2 measurements. It will also have subtle improvements like automatic training detection, better sleep monitoring, continuous heart rate monitoring and more.
