> The Martian Voice Command Watch is a game-changer for smartphone lovers who 
> want a hands-free Bluetooth solution. Initially shared with Kickstarter 
> crowdfunding backers and now rolling out to retailers, it allows smartphone 
> users to stay connected by voice from their wristwatches.

> "The watch acts as a hands-free gateway to the world, allowing users to make 
> and receive calls and do anything else that their smartphone can execute with 
> a voice command," said Jeffrey Hsieh, CEO of Martian Watches. "Imagine the 
> convenience and safety of having a text read aloud to you without using a 
> headset, and of sending a     response using just voice commands."

> Smart Timepiece

> 
> The Martian Watch looks like a classic analog timepiece, but once it is 
> paired with your smartphone it puts a powerful wireless microphone and 
> speaker at your disposal. For the many bare-wristed millennials and others 
> who abandoned their watches for their smartphone screen, the Martian Watch is 
> a wearable, ergonomic alternative to a traditional headset or speaker-based 
> hands-free kit. The unobtrusive design enables avid mobile phone users to 
> enjoy the ultimate in hands-free convenience while making a fashion and style 
> statement.
> 
> 
> The Bluetooth-enabled watches support voice control on both the Apple iOS and 
> the Android platforms. With the Martian Watch, users are able to access their 
> phone's commands, including placing calls, sending voice-to-text messages, 
> listening and responding to text messages, setting calendar notifications and 
> reminders, controlling music, and searching the web, all without their phones 
> leaving their pocket or purse.
> 
> 
> In addition to voice commands, the Martian Watch face contains an OLED that 
> displays caller ID or an incoming text (up to 40 characters), along with 
> vibration and LED alerts. With the downloadable Martian App for both Android 
> and iOS, users receive incoming notifications, such as Facebook, Twitter, 
> Weather, and Gmail, in addition to trigger vibrations, an LED light flash and 
> a scrolling message readout.
> 
> 
> "We've all been in business or social situations where it's simply 
> inappropriate to check your phone. Now, with the Martian Watch, a single 
> vibration means you're receiving a text or social media notification and 
> multiple vibrations signify a call, so it's possible to know what's happening 
> on your smartphone without even looking at the watch," .
