Bellroy



We don't particularly like the look of either of these wallets, though the blue stitching on the bellroy is a nice touch.

In the same vein, there's this, in black and white.

Withings Activite

We think there's something overtly sexually re-assuring in the Withings brand name, so much so that we read it ("Writhings") Activité. In this case, we like the face design (Activé reminds us of "Actimel" in actualité), and we think the wave like diffusion effect on the interior is objectively both sonar and wave context situated on the dial. We like the little Swiss Made logo, how small it is, and where it's placed. We dislike the strap and the stitching, particularly, and we'd like to see a flat to a rounded face, particularly.

As we have the Withings scale in for review (which mates poorly with iOS) perhaps another brand would bring us some sincere desire for the Withings watch. We prefer the look of the scale in White, preferably to the Black version which we purchased.* [Often you will find that it's best to get the device you wish to use, in the exact specification.].

*As it was available at the Apple Store in that colour. Ask for the White one, and we'll see if they respond to questions about inventory.
