Words have the power to build people up, confine people to where they are, and break people down. Everyone needs some inspiration and motivational quotes are considered best to provide you the edge you need to create success. The startup company What? has came up with the idea to infuse the power of words in people’s everyday lives in the form of a stylish watch. How cool is that now??
A simple yet stylish watch which shows you time, inspires you, connects you with your loved ones by a dedicated Quotes app and even allows you to construct your own words. This watch is a perfect combination of tradition and technology. The Quotes watch is all ready to be shipped in October 2018. Below we will discuss every specification of this art piece in detail.

Final Thoughts
Quotes watch is simple yet has a unique appeal in it. Its fully customizable design with app support and 10 different colored straps add fun element too. It is something different and innovative which has never done before. In an era of high-tech hybrid smartwatches, it can be a fresh boost of energy and inspiration which somewhere we all are looking. As it is made with an emotional connect, it constantly reminds us what is more important. Let’s see if it can speak to the younger gadget freak generation or not. But, for me there is no harm in trying something different by spending a little amount of money.
