The latest edition to the Android Wear mafia has made its self available through the Google Store today. The highly anticipated LG Watch Urbane is now available to help your drain your bank account a further $349, a full $100 more than the Moto 360 usually lists at (it is on sale for $179 by the way). Would be buyers have the option to choose the silver housing version or the gold housing version. (looks more copper or bronze to me)
Either watch housing option is available for order, but don’t expect it to hit your doorstep next week. Looks like they will start leaving the warehouse on May 8th. We have seen early orders of devices leave and arrive sooner than listed in the past though. According to the country availability page for devices, the LG Watch Urbane orders are only being accepted for Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States. My heart-felt apologies to everyone else at the moment. It at least has a broader scope of availability than the LG G Watch R has at the moment.
The exterior of the watch design is the bulk of your purchase as the innards are sporting the same Snapdragon 400, 410mAh battery, 1.3-inch 320×320 P-OLEDÂ display and 4GB of storage. In the box you will get the watch, charging cradle, Micro USB charging cradle, travel adapter and your usual reading material.
Interested? Bounce to the Google Store and get and order in. Otherwise, for those in the states, you can give it a few days and see if it hits Verizon as I expect it to or other store shelves before the shipping timeline.
