NEW DELHI, November 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

- Perfect amalgamation of classic style and fitness to enhance daily lifestyle 

- Upto 10 days of in-use and 12 days of standby battery 

- All-day activity tracking - Distance, Steps, Calories, Sleep 

- Comes with interchangeable straps with the choice between metal, leather and silicon 

Accelerating its journey by enhancing the technology in timekeeping, TIMEX, one of the world's largest watch manufacturers in collaboration with an Indian consumer technology start-up BLINK, is bringing yet another device under the connected style segment today for its consumers - TIMEX | BLINK , which is a result of TIMEX's 160 years of watchmaking experience and BLINK's technological innovation. Targeted towards fitness enthusiasts and stylish consumers who are always on the go, TIMEX | BLINK is an activity tracker which combines signature elements of a contemporary traditional watch with sophisticated modern technology for tracking one's daily activities. TIMEX | BLINK will join the much appreciated and well received earlier launches in this segment - TIMEX Metropolitan+ and TIMEX IQ+.

With a shared vision of creating contemporary wrist-wearables, TIMEX and BLINK partnered together to co-develop the SOS technology in the watches which are specifically made for this market. TIMEX | BLINK is a smart beauty designed to help people with busy schedules keep a track of their fitness without compromising on their style quotient. It is an activity tracker which uses Bluetooth technology to connect with one's phone and track all day activities - steps, distance, calories, sleep and gives the battery back-up of 10 days. The USP of the watch is the ability to send instant mail, SMS and save emergency contacts with the user's GPS location in case of an emergency.

Anupam Mathur, Head - Sales and Marketing, TIMEX Group India Limited said, "At TIMEX our focus has always been to use innovative technologies and offer timepieces that meet the demands of our consumers. TIMEX | BLINK is yet another effort in that direction. We generally give up our style quotient when we are on the go as it is tough to manage both style and fitness together in today's busy schedules. TIMEX believes that its consumers do not have to give up on their style for functionality or vice versa. The watch is for the modern men and women who demand a fit and active lifestyle as well as are always connected on the go. It combines modern technology with TIMEX's trusted craftsmanship and American legacy to give consumers more than just a watch. It is an ideal fit for the men and women who are interested in tracking their daily progress but would not want to sacrifice the beauty of a traditional touch on their wrist, a best of both worlds."

Excited about the partnership, Somnath Meher (Co-founder and CEO), BLINK said, "Both TIMEX and BLINK wanted to build a product that's relevant to the Indian market in terms of functionality; yet have a unique design identity. The SOS feature has been integrated to specifically address a key requirement in our country; while keeping it discreet enough to not affect the overall features and look of the watch. The product nicely encompasses TIMEX's years of experience in watch-craftsmanship; and BLINK's forte in developing connected devices with a technology platform."
