As smartwatches slowly seep into the mainstream, it won’t be long until your timepiece is the same as the one your aunt is wearing. For a smartwatch designed just for you, not the average person, there’s BLOCKS. The smartwatch, which just launched on Kickstarter, features a customizable band composed of modules, each of which offers a different functionality. Fitness fiend? Load yours with the Heart Rate module, the GPS module, and the Adventure module. Going somewhere scenic? Slap on the Camera module and the Extra Battery module. Which pieces go in your strap is up to you. And no matter what you choose, you’ll still have access to phone alerts and other features you wouldn’t want a smartwatch without. You can back BLOCKS on Kickstarter now.
