GET FIT WITH JEWELLERY
Jewellery brand Swarovski has teamed up with American sports-tech brand Misfit on its first range of fitness bands.
Unlike typical fitness bands which have a digital display, the Swarovski Activity Tracking Jewellery features a clear Activity crystal with an LED display.
It uses a coin cell battery which can last for six months and is water-resistant.
Wear the Activity crystal with a sports band or the Swarovski Slake bracelet, which comes in nine colours such as white, pink and blue.
Users can set and track their fitness goals using the Link app, which can be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play store.
The Activity crystal can also be used to control the music or camera function on a smartphone.
The Swarovski Activity Tracking Jewellery set - comprising the Activity crystal, sports band and Slake bracelet - costs $280.
A Slake bracelet without the Activity crystal costs $150.
Available at all Swarovski boutiques.
