TL;DR: For a convincing Apple Watch dupe, snag the budget-friendly Chronowatch C-Max Smartwatch on sale for just $29.99 (reg. $79.99) as of July 20 — that's 62% off.


Your phone is with you everywhere you go, but it may get in your way from time to time. When you hop on the treadmill and want to control your music, or when you're running errands and need to respond to messages, carrying around a bulky phone isn't your only option. Instead, you could opt to keep your hands free and wear the Chronowatch C-Max, which is on sale for only $29.99 in the Mashable Shop. It usually retails for $79.99, but you're able to get it for 62% off for a limited time.

A cheaper alternative to the Apple Watch

The cheapest Apple Watch starts at $249, while the snazzier models go up to $799. But you don't need to pay an Apple-level price to get a smartwatch with many of the same features. With the Chronowatch, you can answer and make calls, get message and call alerts, check the weather, monitor your sleep, control music, use a stopwatch, track fitness and sports metrics, get alarms and activity reminders, and more.

Just like the Apple Watch, you can customize the watch face to your liking. Choose between analog or digital clock layouts and add widgets like a step counter, calendar, and the current temperature in your area.

But unlike the Apple Watch, the Chronowatch is compatible with iOS and Android devices. This smartwatch is a great option for Apple users to save hundreds by avoiding the name-brand label, or for Android users to get a comparable version of the Apple Watch without having to get a new phone. 

Comfortable, durable, waterproof

The Chronowatch C-Max sports a 1.7-inch full touchscreen display and a soft, silicone band. This design allows for comfortable wear all day long, even if you're doing a sweat-inducing workout or walking in the rain, thanks to its IP67-waterproof protection.
