I was a big fan of the Runtastic Orbit – a simple fitness wearable that met my ‘just work’ criteria for these devices: it fit well, tracked well, and instantly connected to my phone via Bluetooth and never failed to sync. Now they are announcing the Moment, which takes their solid fitness tracking and wraps it up with an attractive series of watch designs.

Designed to meet the needs of all types of users, the Runtastic Moment is available in four unique styles that offer different size watch faces, types of bands and colors. Simply sync it with the Runtastic Me app and what looks like a traditional watch seamlessly turns into one of the most comprehensive fitness trackers on the market.

The Moment has a fashion-forward look, and according to Runtastic:

“Over the past few years, we have seen the majority of players in the health and fitness space –Runtastic included – try to address the needs of users with a diverse array of tracking devices,” saidFlorian Gschwandtner, CEO and co-founder of Runtastic. “Looking at the products currently available, we strongly felt there was a large gap between fashion and functionality. Therefore, we developed the Runtastic Moment to be an all-encompassing device that is easy to use, aesthetically pleasing and habit-forming.”

Key features include:
• 10 different designs to fit the needs of any user
• Waterproof up to 300 feet
• Stores data on watch up to 7 days
• No charging – uses a standard watch battery that lasts 6 months
• Time syncs automatically via Bluetooth
