It may not monitor your heart rate or double as a media player like some other devices for swimmers, but this new Pool-Mate watch from Swimovate looks like it should appeal to quite a few folks nonetheless, with it packing a built-in accelerometer to help you keep track of lap counts. That’s apparently done by detecting the glide portion of your swim after each turn, which Swmovate says it’s able to do with 99.75 percent accuracy in all pools longer than 10 meters. You’ll also be able to use it to keep track of your overall time, average strokes per lap, speed, distance, and calories burned. Somewhat strangely, however, Swimovate says that the watch will only last for about twelve months, after which you’ll actually have to send it back to the company to get the battery replaced. A bit of a drawback, to be sure, but the $114 price tag isn’t too out of line, and you won’t have to wait long to get your hands on one, with it set to ship later this month. Head on past the break for a quick video overview.
