Synchronos watches aren’t smart watches, but they are clever. They are custom 3d-printed to perfectly fit you. The Alpha watch has a premium mechanical Swiss movement (Sellita-SW210-1) and a scratch- and shatter-resistant crystal. The metal band is custom printed to your exact measurements and has a patent-pending, proprietary 3d-printed clasp mechanism.
When you order, or pre-order for some styles, an Alpha watch, you’ll first receive a scanning kit including a 3d scanner and instructions for precisely measuring your arm. (Online help is available, if needed.) Send that information in to Synchronos, and it will be used to adjust the watch printing pattern before your watch is printed.
Right now, you can order a titanium model for $1999. These are limited to a production run of 10 watches. You’ll be able to travel to the Synchronos studios (at your own expense), where engineers will do a personal fitting for you. You can pre-order the rose gold model ($749, 18k rose gold-plated 316L stainless steel, shipping in March 2018), the Onyx ($499, black ceramic-coated 316L stainless steel, shipping in April 2018), or the stainless ($399, 316L stainless steel, shipping in May 2018).

I was aware of this interesting take on watch design as part of a disastrously unsuccessful Kickstarter campaign – they raised less than 5% of their goal and Kickstarter shut them down as ‘Failed’ on 1/5/18. I think I would be concerned about ordering one of their high-end watches at this point.
Just because a crowdfunding project didn’t raise 100% of their funding goal does not mean that it’s a product that should be avoided.
