The traditional model is priced at $200, but today the firm has announced a limited edition Titanium Peak for $300. The Basis Titanium Peak doesn't add any valuable feature, but that extra $100 brings some nice additional changes. The housing is made of satin finish Grade II titanium. Unlike the Apple Watch, this new Intel-made watch is equipped to resist everyday wear and tear.

In addition, the firm is rolling out a major software feature for both models. The most highlighted feature is the ability to sync health data with Apple Health and Google Fit platforms.
