You Gotta Lose? Hell, Some Of Us Ain’t Dead Yet by Mary Leary

NRBQ has done so many amazing songs. I never thought much about “Roll Call,” from Tiddlywinks - for one thing, it has a lighter, almost Billy Joel sound that’s more about latter day Terry Adams style than what I think of as the classic Q. Yet just as Adams’ work has grown on me, this track has made its way into my consciousness. The lyrics speak to me more in 2020 than they did when Tiddlywinks was released in 1980, before the D.C.-area music scene had lost Robert Goldstein (Urban Verbs), Kevin MacDonald (brilliant visual artist and scene stalwart who helped me design and layout [The] Infiltrator), Danny Gatton disciple/guitar maverick Evan Johns, bassist Michael Maye from the original H-Bombs, Rick Dreyfuss (Half Japanese/Chumps/Shakemore), Libby Hatch and Michael Mariotte  (Tru Fax and the Insaniacs), Sally Be/Berg - REM/Egoslavia/SHE/Robert Palmer), Nurses member Marc Halpern (heroin, 1982), Lorenzo (Pee- Wee) Jones (Tiny Desk Unit) and hybrid rocker Jim Altman (HIV, 1990s).  Goldstein, Dreyfuss, Maye and MacDonald succumbed to cancer, while Evan Johns’ deterioration followed years of touring, hard drinking and pushing himself past the limit.

Those named above have been joined by Tommy Keene (the Rage/the Razz/solo/Paul Westerberg/Matthew Sweet - cardiac arrest at the age of 59; 2017), TDU’s Susan Mumford (cancer, 2018), David Byers (Psychotics/H.R./Bad Brains), and Skip Groff (Yesterday and Today/ Limp Records/Dischord - seizure, 2019).  This is just an imperfect/incomplete naming of D.C.-area losses - I’m sure journalists from other cities could make lists. A horde of New Wave and early alternative musicians have died within the past few years. Whether through the stress of hard living/poverty, substance abuse, cancer or Covid-19, we’re seeing artists pass much earlier than I, anyway, expected them to.

We’re already past the loss of all the original Ramones. All the Cramps less Poison Ivy. Joe Strummer. Robert Quine. Hilly Kristal. Lou Reed. As of July, 2020, since 2018 we’ve also lost Andy Gill, Ivan Kral, Genesis P-Orridge, Adam Schlesinger, Danny Mihm, Ric Ocasek, Daniel Johnston, Kim Shattuck, Lorna Doom, Mark Hollis, Keith Flint, Ranking Roger, Mark E. Smith, Glenn Branca, Randy Rampage, Hardy Fox, Pete Shelley, Matthew Seligman, Bill Rieflin, Dave Greenfield, Florian Schneider,  Ian Dury, Benjamin Orr, Kirsty McColl and David Roback.

Talking about the deaths of talented, gifted creatives is a helluva way to start a column. But here we are. Older performers don’t always get the attention afforded newer, so the rest of this piece shares and celebrates artists from the original New Wave/punk scenes who are still around and active. Many are from the D.C.-area cornucopia I know best, while others have just come to my attention, or seem especially noteworthy.

The Zeros’ Javier Escovedo has been steadily emitting tasty Americana-ish rock while occasionally dropping some Zeros sturm-’n’-drang - most recently with Munster Records single “In The Spotlight” and a track on Burger Records’ Quarantunes compilation. Quarantunes is a seven-album affair featuring 140 alternative/punk performers old and new, all of whom wrote songs between March-April 2020. A cursory listen to Volume 2 reveals the recorded version of a good night at a very wild bar, with Zeros still handily kicking ass of all ages.

Velvet Monkeys/B.A.L.L. player and Sonic Youth/Teenage Fanclub producer Don Fleming reports, “We’ve put out new tracks ‘Theories of Rummanetics’ and ‘Legacy of Success.’ Jay has written a few ‘modules’ and Malcolm and I are having fun doing the music,” adding, “I play some electric six string on the new Rob Moss album - it’s fun to be on, with lots of guitar slingers from the DC daze.”
Yup, Rob Moss of Skin-Tight Skin has solicited contributions from Fleming and from Marshall Keith (Slickee Boys), along with a pile of talent including Stuart Casson (Psychotics/Dove/Meatmen), Franz Stahl (Foo Fighters/Scream), Billy Loosigian (Nervous Eaters, the Boom-Boom Band), Nels Cline (Wilco) and Saul Koll (the guy who made guitars for Henry Kaiser and Lee Ranaldo). The set is called We’ve Come Back To Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Chumps/Workdogs/Jam Messengers player Rob Kennedy apparently has too much energy to throw in the towel - he’s kept recording, performing and making various sorts of lo-fi, DIY mischief that never loses that fresh, ‘70s feeling. Jam Messengers released Night And Day on vinyl in 2017. One of my fave Kennedy tracks, “A Low Down Dirty Shame” speaks to this moment as well as any.

Former Tiny Desk Unit/Fuji’s Navy/Rhoda & the Bad Seeds members Bob Boilen, Kevin Lay, Michael Barron and Bob Harvey have released a new Danger Painters joint, Thank Speak Love This Record. Lay joked, “I have a voice made for Morse Code” before revealing his recent work with Rhoda and the Bad Seeds material, released June 30 as Live at Nightclub 9:30. Boilen continues to introduce artists both vital and obscure via Tiny Desk Concerts and All Songs Considered/NPR.

I’ve seen David Arnson play recently and can attest to his proclivity for unfettered growth via Insect Surfers, the instrumental group that originally had some trouble establishing cred. with younger D.C. punks. The Surfers’ most recent release was Living Fossils (2019). Arnson celebrated the band’s 40 years of existence with a European tour in 2019.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SkIuWIZVkM
Jad Fair says, “Half Japanese will have a new album released in November on Fire Records.” Jad’s art was recently featured at the Hiromart Gallery/Tokyo, while David has created a Facebook page where fans can pick up his colorful images for, well, mere bags o’ shells, as far as we can see -  https://www.facebook.com/David-Fair-Painting-107055447700859/
Despite health issues for several members, Bad Brains has collaborated with Element to make BB themed skate wear https://www.elementbrand.com/mens-collection-bad-brains/ and added some killer live tracks to its YouTube channel.  
Former WGTB programmers John Paige and Steve Lorber have been presenting Rock Continuum on WOWD-LP FM 94.3 since 2017.
Mike Stax continues to give excellent motivation for hunting down a pair of Beatle boots - Munster released the Loons’ 7” EP, A Dream In Jade Green, last year. The latest issue of Ugly Things, said by Stax to be heavily focused on the Pretty Things’ Phil May, was reported in early July to be nearing publication.

Razz (the) Documentary will tell the story of how an uncommonly combustible rock band - especially with the Bill Craig/Abaad Behram line-up - helped spread the Flamin’ Groovies gospel while throwing down oddly compelling originals and taking the two-guitar thing up several notches - the producers are purportedly seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Whether anyone can ever recreate the experience of being in an altered state via obsessive, sometimes conversational repetition of certain chords, anchored by Ted Nicely rethinking just what can be done with a bass guitar, given girth by Doug Tull’s intuitive drumming; with Mike Reidy the heat-seeking missile somewhere near the center... well, I doubt it. ‘Cause at this point you’re feeling no pain and it’s not about drinking; there is no room for anything but water - the beer will be knocked over when you’re this busy matching David Arnson’s other-side-of-the-front-line’s leaps into joydum while PCP’d out yahoos from the sticks learn the hard way that hugging Marshall amps can lead to lifelong repercussions. There (in case nothing I want to say about [the] Razz makes it into the film) - I’ve said it.
Discussions among old friends have confirmed that I’m not alone in being happily surprised at this development - we never expected our actions - which led to the hardcore explosion that’s received a lot more attention... would ever make it into any history book. Yet coverage of many of the D.C.-area musicians featured in this piece also comes with Punk The Capitol, A History of D.C. Punk and Hardcore, 1976-1983. Spring 2021 is the projected date for streaming/DVD release.
Ivan Julian came back from a scary 2015 bout with cancer to do a show in New York in 2016. The cancer has returned. Friends have organized a GoFundMe to raise money for surgery and basic needs.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDB_3by-xkI
The Shakemore fest also refuses to fade, promising “eight hours of streaming steaming video” on August 1. Sounds will be provided by R. Stevie Moore, Velvet Monkeys, Tav Falco’s Panther Burns, Half Japanese, Johnny Spampinato, Weird Paul and the Chumps, among many, many others.
Despite having played at CBGB and other alternative venues in 1979, at the height of the New Wave, Gary Wilson’s work is so distinctive, he’s rarely been included with any musical genre other than the oft-vague “experimental” category. Folks were too unmoored by his visceral performances to get behind him. Wilson’s 14th album, Tormented, was released by Cleopatra in February.
Paul Collins recently published a book that he wrote with Chuck Nolan; I Don’t Fit In: My Wild Ride Through the Punk and Power Pop Trenches with the Nerves and the Beat (Hozac Books).

As “Heath,” Michael Layne Heath, a journalist who contributed to (the) Infiltrator and many other ‘zines, published My Week Beats Your Year: Encounters with Lou Reed in May (Hat & Beard Press).
In April, X released its first album in 35 years; Alphabetland.  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ1I-laItPI
As exciting for me as any of the above is Richard Hell with the Heartbreakers’ 2019 release of Yonkers Demo 1976. Hell’s “You Gotta Lose” is one of my picks for best punk/new wave singles of all time. The Heartbreakers version is, predictably, messier than the Robert Quine guitar-spiked classic. Its more excessive charms are growing on me...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48QnsysCN_A
This piece could go on and on - compiling it has been exhausting. The best part has been the response to my social media call for any info I didn’t have re: the D.C.-centric scene I left for New York in 1983. Musicians anxious to keep their compadres’ names alive have hammered that post with 138 comments to date. Urban Verbs percussionist Danny Frankel, who’s played with a colorful spread of artists including Beck, Marianne Faithful, Lou Reed, John Cale and k.d. Lang, made a point of being sure I knew about the passing of Marc Halpern, a source of obvious pain. People were worried I wouldn’t mention John Stabb (Government Issue - 2016), rockabilly player Billy Hancock (2018), Fred “Freak” Smith (Strange Boutique/Beefeater - murdered in Los Angeles, 2017), John Hansen (Slickee Boys - 2010), record store owner/Wasp Records starter/music supporter Bill Asp, Jimmy Barnett of The Killer Bees, and David Byers.
One of the hardest for me to write about is Chris Morse, whose 1984 passing from a drug overdose wrenched so many - I managed to get an obituary into, I think, The New York Rocker (that physical trek was part of a long-ago blur; a very hot day of traipsing over steaming concrete in a narrow-skirted dress to deliver the copy). Chris popped up in my dreams for years - one “visitation” pushed me to write a poem about it in the ‘90s. Morse, who played in Rhoda & The Bad Seeds and worked as a doorman at The Pyramid after moving to NYC in the early ‘80s, was on one of the Urban Verbs’ early flyers. I’m on another.

I ended up getting so burnt out on the responsibility of populating this sad roll call, I’ve started a memorial page for them all on Facebook. The nature of truly alternative music is such that many of its lights still fail to fill the pages of major publications. Many of these lights gave a great deal of their lives, if not everything, for the art they believed in. It’s good to remember them, and those heady early days. It’s good to enjoy what we still can.

New Post has been published on Smart Wrist Wrap Watches
New Post has been published on https://www.smartwristwrap.com/fossil-q-marshal-gen-2-smoke-stainless-steel-touchscreen-smartwatch-ftw2108.html
Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 Smoke Stainless Steel Touchscreen Smartwatch FTW2108
As you may already know the Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 is great looking smartwatch. But looks are not the only thing that matters to consumers these days. Most of us are looking for a combination of both style and functionality. The Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 delivers in all areas and here’s why.
Let’s start with the Specs
First the watch is sandwiched with snapdragon 2100 with 512 megabytes of RAM. An internal storage of four gigs inch LED screen with the resolution of 320×290. It comes with three sixty milliamp hour battery which will last for about a day and it charges via wireless charger and finally it is water-resistant with an IP rating of 67.
With specs out of the way here’s a brief rundown of the Fossil Q Marshal feature set, see the full list here
It comes to the stainless steel straps which can also be changed with other straps. On the outside it doesn’t have many buttons but just a single button on the right and on the left side there are speakers with a mic.
When you power up the device a beautiful dial is what comes up first. What is great about this dial is, it is fully customizable and you can also choose from presets which are customized beforehand.  Just like an Android phone from top down a notification bar can be pulled down from which you can choose to go to settings to adjust to your liking. And most importantly, it does let you call via this watch using the microphone.
It has the Q fossil app for customization and obviously Google Play Store from which you can choose to download applications or you can simply sink your phone with this watch and the applications will sync on its own. Some of the basic preinstalled applications include, weather app, and google maps. But the stock application that really comes in handy is google assistant app.
So some of the features of the Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 that we personally like…. is that it really helps when you’re out there looking for some directions to places on maps. To have this on your wrist really comes in handy.
Another cool feature is flashlight althouh not a bright light but yes does its job perfectly fine during night.
The most important and the most useful application and will probably get the most use, is find my phone app. It does what it says, it’s really useful and saves the trouble of turning over pillows to find your phone.
If this Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 doesn’t work for you be sure to see the rest of the options here
If you are planning to buy this watch you can go here to checkout actual customer reviews. But keep in mind there are other alternatives like the Moto 360 which you can find below.

Who doesn’t love fresh herbs? AeroGarden’s Harvest herb garden isn’t super high-tech, but it is techy in that it uses hydroponics to grow delicious herbs and other produce quickly without much effort on her part. All she has to do to get her herbs growing is pop the seed pods in the planter, give it water regularly, and add the included plant food now and then. The planter does the rest, providing light on a schedule, moving the water, and alerting her when it needs more. In our tests, we had great success with this garden, and we’re sure she will, too.

Philips Wake-Up Light Alarm Clock, available on Amazon, $104.99 (originally $139.99)
Waking up to a blaring alarm is hardly ideal, so the Philips Wake-Up Light alarm clock makes a great gift. It uses a colored sunrise simulation to gradually wake you up 20 to 40 minutes before your alarm is set to go off. She can choose between five different nature sounds for the actual alarm, too, so she won’t have to deal with a blaring alarm if the light doesn’t work its magic. She can use it as a bedside reading lamp, too.
A smart luggage tag
Tumblr media

Away
Away x Tile Luggage Tag, available from Away, $30
Lost luggage is an all too common experience but with the Away x Tile Luggage tag, she’ll always know where her bag is. The classic black leather tag has a Tile Bluetooth tracker inside that connects to an app on her phone to show her where her bag is in real time so long as it’s within range of her phone or other Tile members.
A cleaning kit for her phone

WHOOSH! Cleaning Kit, available on Amazon, $16.99

Blue light from electronics can lead to eye strain and make it hard to fall asleep at night, so why not get her a pair of blue light-blocking glasses? Felix Gray makes both prescription and non-prescription glasses that look great and work well to block out those harmful blue rays.
A beautiful wireless charger
Tumblr media
source
Native Union
Native Union Drop Wireless Charger, available on Amazon, $59.99
Most wireless chargers are boring black or white pucks that are functional but not very pretty. Native Union’s Drop charger is the opposite. It comes in a soft rose or dark graphite color that looks gorgeous. The top has grippy silicone on it in a cool pattern so her phone won’t slide off it while charging.
A camera lens kit for her phone

A pair of touchscreen gloves that are actually warm
Tumblr media
source
Nordstrom’s Rack/Defence Online
UGG Faux Shearling Touchscreen Compatible Gloves, available at Nordstrom Rack, $29.97
Touchscreen gloves aren’t always attractive, but Ugg makes some very nice ones with genuine leather and shearling for warmth and style. These gloves will make it easy for her to use her phone no matter how cold it gets outside.
A smart speaker
Tumblr media
source
Amazon

Android Wear 2.0 is coming to 2 Google flagship smartwatches in 2017
The tech titan is preparing yourself to release two wearable innovation tools on its updated operating system.
Google will introduce two smartwatches based on Android Wear 2.0 in the first quarter of 2017. The Google Android Wear item supervisor, Jeff Chang disclosed these details in a meeting performed by The Verge.
Chang talked to the publication about the wearables which will certainly be the initial to utilize this operating system.
Until now, there had actually been just reports of new Google smartwatches. Currently, Chang has actually verified not only the wearables however also that they will be the first to operate on the Android Use 2.0 operating system. This is the current big statement in the wearable innovation sector to help to encourage consumers to take interest in smartwatches. As much as there has been a large amount of growth in that category of mobile tools, customers have not been acquiring anywhere near the price that was predicted by several industry experts, including eMarketer.
The Android Put on 2.0 smartwatches from Google won't have the firm's brand, neither will it be Pixel.
Instead, the smartwatches will carry the brand name of the firm producing them. According to Chan, Google dealt with the producer (which has stayed unrevealed by the time of the writing of this post) to produce the software application and also hardware design of the wearables. Though the maker remains to be unrevealed, Chang did state that it is a company that has actually formerly made Android Use devices.
Following the preliminary launch of the 2 Google smartwatches, there will certainly be others that will be updated to the Put on 2.0 operating system in 2017. They include: Tag Heuer Connected, Polar M600, Moto 360 Gen 2, Moto 360 Sporting activity, Casio Smart Outdoor Watch, Fossil Q Wander, Fossil Q Marshall, Fossil Q Owner, Huawei Watch, Huawei Watch Ladies, LG Watch Urbane Second Edition LTE, LG Watch Urbane, LG G Enjoy R, Asus ZenWatch 2, Asus ZenWatch 3, Nixon Goal, Michael Kors Access Bradshaw Smartwatch, and Michael Kors Gain access to Dylan Smartwatch.
The various other tools will certainly obtain their Android 2.0 updates adhering to the launch of the Google smartwatches. The upgraded platform is meant to supply customers with a new range of features.

Launched globally earlier thіѕ year, bоth Q Marshal аnd Q Wander wеrе launched іn India late lаѕt month аt а price оf Rs 21,995 each, pitting thеm dіrесtlу аgаіnѕt thе Moto 360 аnd thе Moto 360 Sport .
Bеѕіdеѕ Q Marshal аnd Q Wander, Fossil аlѕо launched 10 mоrе smartwatches аnd fitness bands іn thе country асrоѕѕ іtѕ owned аnd licensed brands -- Emporio Armani, Michael Kors, Misfit, Chaps, аnd SKAGEN. Thіѕ gіvеѕ thе company ѕеvеrаl fallback options іn а market thаt іѕ ѕtіll considered niche. Wе rесеntlу gоt оur hands оn оnе оf іtѕ Android Wear-based smartwatches, thе Fossil Q Marshal. Iѕ thе smartwatch а hit оr аnоthеr mіѕѕ bу thе company, read оur review tо find out.
Design аnd display
Whеn іt соmеѕ tо smartwatch design, companies rеаllу don't hаvе muсh tо play аrоund with. So, mоѕt products еnd uр lооkіng nеаrlу thе same. It's thе minor details аnd thе finish thаt marks а difference. Fossil hаѕ fоllоwеd thе ѕаmе theory аnd hаѕ chosen а simplistic design fоr іtѕ Q Marshal. Thе оvеrаll lооk іѕ similar tо оthеr watches wіth circular dial.
Thе circular metallic case оf thе Fossil Q Marshal іѕ pretty muсh identical tо thаt оf Moto 360. However, lіkе I said, thеrе аrе ѕеvеrаl сhаngеѕ whеn уоu lооk closely. Thе mоѕt prominent іѕ thе grove design surrounding thе dial. It соuld trick уоu аt fіrѕt tо thіnk thаt thе groves rotate lіkе іn Samsung Gear S smartwatches. But thеу don't.
Thе metal build gіvеѕ іt сеrtаіn level оf sturdiness, ѕо thе оvеrаll design gеtѕ а thumbs-up frоm us. Wе received thе Black colour variant аlоng wіth Black Silicone band, whісh tоgеthеr gave аn оvеrаll stealthy essence tо thе Q Marshal. Of course, thе Silicone band іѕ detachable аnd саn bе replaced wіth thе metal band оr thе leather brown strap. Wе lіkе thе Silicone band thаt саmе wіth thе unit.
 It's comfortable аnd doesn't irritate еvеn whеn wearing іt fоr hours. Juѕt lіkе а classic analogue watch, thе Fossil Q Marshal аlѕо hаѕ а side crown, whісh аgаіn tricks уоu tо thіnk thаt іt саn bе rotated but unfоrtunаtеlу it's јuѕt а push button wіth limited functions.
Thе Fossil Q Marshal features а 1.4-inch circular LED display wіth 320x290 pixels, tab bit lоwеr thаn thаt оf Moto 360's 1.5-inch 360x330 pixels LCD display. This, however, shouldn't mаkе а difference аt all. Thе touch screen іѕ easily viewable іn bright daylight. But whаt bothered uѕ wаѕ thе flat-tyre display аnd thе extra screen bezels. Fossil could've mаdе аn effort tо remove thе bezels аnd mаkе thе screen lооk slightly mоrе bigger аnd immersive. Thе Huawei Watch's circular display ѕtіll holds thе crown fоr uѕ wіth іtѕ 1.4-inch 400x400 Super Amoled tech.
Thе Q Marshal's display stays іn thе Always-On mode. Yоu саn аlѕо double click thе side button tо completely shut оff thе screen. Long-pressing іt opens thе app menu. Thеrе аrе аlѕо ѕеvеrаl gesture-based functionalities аvаіlаblе іn thе smartwatch ѕuсh аѕ single-handed use, covering thе screen tо dim іt аnd more. Performance аnd battery Thе Fossil Q Marshal runs fluid whеn іt соmеѕ tо thе performance. Engaging wіth notifications, opening аnd working apps lіkе Google Maps, BBC News, Hangouts, Swarm аnd оthеrѕ wеrе glitch-free. Thе smartwatch іѕ powered bу а Qualcomm Snapdragon 2100 processor аlоng wіth 512MB RAM аnd 4GB оf inbuilt storage.
Besides, а stutter-free performance, thе smartwatch соmеѕ wіth 20 preloaded watchfaces, mоѕt оf thеm imitate thе lооk оf а classic analogue watch. Switching watchfaces іѕ easy аnd ѕо іѕ navigating thrоugh apps.

Whіlе іt tracks pretty muсh еvеrуthіng -- frоm walking tо cycling аnd mоrе wе wеrе quіtе disappointed wіth thе company's decision tо omit thе heart rate sensors, whісh аrе present іn mоѕt оf thе nеw smartwatches іn thе market. So, mаnу health-conscious users mау nоt find іt thе rіght piece оf wearable fоr them.
Coming tо thе battery оf Fossil Q Marshal, thе company claims іtѕ wearable саn run fоr 24 hours. But thаt іѕ whеn thе device іѕ іn ideal condition. Thе battery life саn vary based оn hоw уоu uѕе it.

Itѕ appealing rugged design аnd thе stainless steel build rеаllу gіvеѕ а premium feel. Attaching а leather strap оr а metal strap furthеr enhances thе looks. Unfortunately, design іѕ whеrе thе game ends.
Thе performance оf thе smartwatch іѕ јuѕt аbоut average аnd raises nо eyebrows аѕ such. Thе simple Android Wear UI іѕ easy tо use, whісh іѕ hоw wе thіnk іt ѕhоuld bе аnd thе battery life іѕ аlѕо nоt muсh impressive.
Untіl аnd unlеѕѕ уоu аrе аll fоr thе design оr аrе а loyal Fossil fan, wе wіll nоt recommend it. If уоu аrе lооkіng fоr а mоrе 'value fоr money' smartwatch іn thе ѕаmе price segment, Moto 360 (2nd gen) іѕ аlrеаdу аvаіlаblе оn ѕеvеrаl ecommerce websites. Sports enthusiasts whо wаnt а health-focused smartwatch, саn gо fоr Moto 360 Sport. Huawei Watch аnd thе Samsung Gear S2 аrе аvаіlаblе іn thе ѕаmе price bracket.

Tymometer Watch Face for Android Wear OS
An hour glass brings a sense of urgency. Sand trickling down slowly is hard to avoid. We tried to bring the same to a digital surface. We were constantly on the lookout for new and unique ideas that would keep this project alive. Our goal was to move away from familiar ways of displaying time and formulate something entirely different. That’s when the possibility of viewing time on a meter struck us, and we created the watchface, Tymometer for your smartwatch. Tymometer indicates time as simply as a digital watch would but it gives your smartwatch a great look with the hour-to-hour scale that runs along the centre. The minutes are distinguishable through a contrasting shade that deftly sweeps across the watchface and takes over at the end of an hour. These features make reading time at a swoop incredibly easy and give your device a striking look. Android wear / Wear OS smart watch required Dark & Light themes 8 pre-defined themes, Ability to create custom themes Compatible with: • Moto 360 – All generations• Asus Zenwatch – All generations• Huawei Watch – All generations• Fossil Q – Founder, Marshall, Wander• Tag Heuer Connected• Polar M600• Samsung Gear Live • LG – G Watch, G Watch R, Urbane, Watch Sport, Watch Style• Sony Smartwatch 3 or any device running Android Wear / Wear OS by Google Also check out our other watch faces • Roto 360• Time Tuner• Roto Gears• Radii Created by Gaurav Singh &Krishna Prajapati http://android.giveawayoftheday.com/tymometer-watch-face-for-android-wear-os/ https://blog.cyberprosocial.com/2018/04/09/tymometer-watch-face-for-android-wear-os/

These are the Android Wear smartwatches getting the Wear OS update Google has published a list of devices that will get the Wear OS update. The list does not drastically differ from the list of smartwatches that would get Android 8.0 Oreo. Google rebranded Android Wear to Wear OS, though the changes are mostly cosmetic. Google’s rebranding of Android Wear to Wear OS might not have been entirely surprising, but it was still noteworthy. Less noteworthy are the changes with Wear OS, since there are none. Because of that, Google‘s list of Android Wear smartwatches that will get the Wear OS update is almost identical to the December list of smartwatches that would get Android 8.0 Oreo. A couple of new additions include the Skagen Falster and TAG Heuer Connected Modular 41, as they were announced in the time since that December list. Here is the full list of devices that will get Wear OS: Casio PRO TREK Smart WSD-F20 Casio WSD-F10 Smart Outdoor Watch Diesel Full Guard Emporio Armani Connected Fossil Q Control Fossil Q Explorist Fossil Q Founder 2.0 Fossil Q Marshal Fossil Q Venture Fossil Q Wander Guess Connect Gc Connect Huawei Watch 2 (both cellular & non-cellular versions) Hugo BOSS BOSS Touch Kate Spade Scallop LG Watch Sport LG Watch Style Louis Vuitton Tambour Misfit Vapor Michael Kors Access Bradshaw Michael Kors Access Dylan Michael Kors Access Grayson Michael Kors Sofie Montblanc Summit Movado Connect Mobvoi Ticwatch S & E Nixon Mission Polar M600 Skagen Falster Smartwatch TAG Heuer Connected Modular 41 TAG Heuer Connected Modular 45 Tommy Hilfiger 24/7 You ZTE Quartz These smartwatches will get the Wear OS update over the next few weeks. Again, the update is just a rebranding to Wear OS, so do not expect new features. Editor's Pick Best Android Wear watches (March 2018) Android Wear has evolved a lot since it was first announced back in 2014. In the early days, there were only a few options, mainly from Motorola and LG. These days, many handset makers have … Also, keep in mind that the Android Wear app was also updated to reflect the rebranding. Interestingly, the new Wear OS app does feature some changes, such as improved screen glanceability with darker backgrounds, improved Google Keep experience, and more. On a smaller note, the next version of Google Play Services will also feature Wear OS branding when pairing. , via Android Authority http://bit.ly/2HGcmHT

Diesel On Smartwatch Review
New Post has been published on http://secondcovers.com/diesel-on-smartwatch-review/
Diesel On Smartwatch Review
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
Made for tech companies, adopted by fashion brands – that is one of the best ways of summarising Android Wear. The platform was first introduced to bring the Android operating system to the wrist, but now that smartphone manufacturers haven’t had much luck appealing to wide audiences, fashion brands are having a go. Popular brands such as Fossil and Michael Kors, most of them under the Fossil Group umbrella, have launched smartwatches including the Q Marshal and Access.
Diesel, a popular name in the fashion industry, also licenses its name to Fossil Group to manufacture watches. It has already had a go at a hybrid watch, the Diesel On, and has now launched an Android Wear model called the Diesel On Smartwatch. Priced at around Rs. 25,000, can it make a strong case for Android Wear? We find out.
youtube
Diesel On Smartwatch look and feel
Diesel watches are known to have big chunky cases and funky bands, and this smartwatch follows the same design principles. The watch has a big 48mm aluminium case that is sure to draw attention. Diesel has gone ahead with a dual-colour design with black machined finish for the bezel while the rest of the body is silver, making it stand out. The display is set lower than the bezel rather than flush with it.
To keep the case and the display safe, there are four sidepieces that also function as a design element. On the right side, these pieces have hardware buttons with the crown in between. On the left, there are has two screwheads and a speaker grille in between. The crown can be pressed and rotated in either direction. If you take a closer look, it also sports the Diesel logo on it. Overall, the design is quite similar to that of Diesel’s analogue watches in the market.
Flip the watch over and you can see that the metal rear cover has an acrylic window in the middle to facilitate wireless charging. Diesel hasn’t let go of a branding opportunity and the charging window has another logo on it. Sadly, the Diesel On Smartwatch misses out on a heart-rate sensor which is fairly common on competitors’ models at this price.
The Diesel On Smartwatch is sold in two variants in India, one with a metal strap and the other with a leather strap. Our review unit had a 24mm leather strap with quick-release pins that make it easy to swap it with any standard 24mm watchband. The leather strap has two screwheads riveted on for looks. The watch weighs around 96g and does make its presence felt on your wrist without really getting uncomfortable.
Diesel On Smartwatch specifications and features
While the design is typical Diesel, the hardware is similar to most other Android Wear devices in the market. The Diesel On Smartwatch is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 platform and has 512MB of RAM. While this does seem low in comparison to what modern smartphones pack in, it is adequate to run Android Wear 2.0 without any hiccups. There is 4GB of internal storage which can be used to store apps downloaded from the Play Store as well as music if you have subscribed to Google Play Music.
There’s a 1.4-inch round AMOLED display which does not have a flat tyre design like the Moto 360 (2nd Gen), which means the entire display is utilised. There’s an ambient light sensor and so the watch is capable of adjusting its screen brightness based on light conditions. Viewing angles are good and the display is viewable outdoors. There’s Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, but no GPS or NFC.
Diesel ships a charging cable in the box with a wireless charging pad on one end and a USB Type-A plug on the other. The wireless charging pad looks a lot like the one shipped with the Apple Watch. Charging time depends on the adapter you plug the cable into. We used a 10W charger and it took over four hours to take the smartwatch’s 370mAh battery from flat to full.
Shop On SecondCovers
The Diesel On Smartwatch runs on Android Wear 2.7 on top of Android Oreo. It’s compatible with phones running Android 4.4 or above and also with iPhone models running iOS 9 and above. Diesel has added quite a few of its custom watch faces for you to choose from, and each of them can be tweaked to the minutest detail. You can also download more watch faces from the Play Store. Supported standalone apps such as Telegram can be downloaded and used when the watch is connected to Wi-Fi. For text input, you have the option to trace alphabets, type using an onscreen keyboard, or use speech-to-text.
Diesel has preloaded a few of its own apps, called Dial Effects and Diesel T-ON-I. Dial Effects has Weather Mode, which shows animations to represent the weather at your current location; Activity Mode, which shows how active you are; and Do Not Disturb mode which causes a shatter animation to play every time a notification comes in. If you have been inactive for a while, it fills the watch face with virtual dust. The T-ON-I app conveys information about the weather, current time, and your activity.
Diesel On Smartwatch performance
Android Wear is quite light, and the Diesel On Smartwatch can run it without any issues. We faced no lags but you might occasionally see a loading screen for large apps. While a majority of the watch operations are touch-based, the crown can be pressed in to call up a list of installed apps. Rotating the crown lets you scroll through the list, and pressing it again acts as a Back button. The two buttons on the watch are completely customisable and you can set them up as shortcuts to launch your favourite apps.
Calling is supported on the watch via Bluetooth. However, this isn’t turned on by default and you’ll need to go into the Bluetooth settings menu to do so. Calls can be initiated from the watch and are routed through the paired phone. We had to pull the watch up to our ear to hear what our callers were saying, and they also complained that we sounded tinny. We used a Google Pixel 2 (Review) to test the watch and found that call quality was quite erratic. At times, when answering incoming calls on the phone, neither party could hear the other. We were able to converse when we turned Bluetooth off and just used our phone normally, so to us this seems like an Android Wear issue. While we were able to pair a Bluetooth headset with the watch, we couldn’t use it for voice calling.
Battery life is one area in which the Diesel On Smartwatch falls short. It managed to run for one day with normal usage such as checking notifications and occasionally answering a few calls, with the Always-On mode enabled. With the battery saver mode, the watch managed to go for a day and a half. Overall, battery life isn’t great and the long charging time provides no relief. We would highly recommend charging the watch every night before going to bed.
Verdict Fashion brands have shown a keen interest in wearable tech, and the Diesel On Smartwatch is a fine example of that. It scores in terms of looks, but it does seem overpriced for what it offers. It lacks GPS, NFC, and a heart-rate sensor which are common on smartwatches at this price point. If you are considering this smartwatch, do keep in mind that you are paying more for the brand and the software customisations. If you are using an iPhone, the Apple Watch Series 2 will offer you more value for money despite the slight premium. If you are on Android and are more concerned with functionality than looks, you might want to try to get your hands on the Asus ZenWatch 3 or the Huawei Watch 2 instead.
Price: Rs. 24,495
Pros
Bold design
Good build quality
Crisp display
Cons
No heart rate sensor
Below-average battery life
Occasional issues with calling
Ratings (Out of 5)
Design: 4
Performance: 3
Value for money: 2.5
Overall: 3

Check Time On The Go With Fossil Watches
Fossil, the fashion accessories producing brand after seeing the growth of the watch market worldwide entered to it and chose to make watches that are updated. They are among those watch manufacturing companies that brought to us smartwatches and hybrid smartwatches that are now dominating the watch industry. From this content, you will get a pithy inventory of some Fossil watches that are apt for today's active men and women.
· Crunchy Design with Sharp Features:
Accuracy is at its best with this Fossil Machine FS5261 watch. Its crispy composure with piercing functionalities help the young watch users with the exact time. They move on with time. An ideal one for the never-say-die men, this chronograph watch records the speed of time.
45mm steel case keeps this amazing piece strength to run. The two-tone golden and blackish strap glows on his wrist and also embraces it with grip. A date display is visible in the middle of 4 and 5 o'clock positions. Every component part of this beautiful piece has been well crafted.
· A Sporty Time-Teller that Records Every Moment:
In today's fast-paced life, people want everything on the go. There is nothing static, but everything is dynamic. The Fossil Grant FS4990 is a watch that is combined with a usual pattern but also embedded with excruciating features like chronograph that helps the piece to fathom the pace of time.
With its stubborn 44mm steel case, this solid men's quartz watch can accept challenges of every condition. Its blue dial enhances the style of the model and also gives you the advantage at a high-fi event. The matte blackish leather strap is well attached with the case and also finely enclosed on your wrist. It gives the exact value of your time and style.
· Depicting the Style of Urban Men:
The urban men have an enchanting style which is fulfilled by this extremely dashing Fossil Townsman ME3110 watch. Its hands and small second's hands are ornamented with the golden colour. Roman numerals are used as time-markers that exudes a conventional essence from this watch.
Finely crafted silver bezel sparkles like a sun and also protects the piece from heat effect. Accompanying the small seconds sub-dial is the 24-hour indicator dial. The significance of this function is that the watch consists of an hour hand that accomplishes a revolution in a day or 24 hours.
The brownish leather made strap of this model is youthful. It flexibly sits on the male wrists and gives it comfort. Mineral crystal glass is among the strong one that makes a piece protected from scratches and this piece is also added with the mentioned one. It can remain untouched from water with its 50 meters water resistance capability.
· Modern in quality and traditional in look:
A versatile watch crafted with sharp instruments, this maritime Fossil Crewmaster CH3059 analogue dial watch is contemporary in features and orthodox in the pattern. Made for the debonair men, this chronograph and date added piece provides accurate time on and off the water.
The round bezel has been applied in rose-golden and blue colours. Three push knobs are attached at the right part of the case. The well-fabricated blue dial enhances the style of a wearer. With a stopwatch functionality, this timepiece becomes versatile.
· An ultimate smartwatch for the Gen-Y users:
The USP of Fossil is their smartwatches. This Fossil Q Marshal is a smartwatch that is embedded with functions like Activity Monitor, Android Wear, Bluetooth, G-Sensor, Touch Screen and much more.
With all these mentioned features, this Fossil smart timepiece resembles with the young men. 45mm steel case of this model keeps it muscular.
The GenY GmbH is a Swiss Company in the heart of Zurich which was founded in 2017 by Karl Kieser. Everything started with frustration as a user and we asked ourselves why smartwatches always have to be unaesthetic and cheap build? That's why we have made it our task to create the best hybrid Smartwatch in the world.

So I bought a new smart watch while I was overseas.
By overseas I mean Norfolk Island, although it’s just 1600km or so from the Australian mainland.
It was one of those spur of the moment things. I didn’t really need another watch. I have several already, but this one was on special and, well – you can’t have too many watches.
The Fossil Q Marshal Gen 2 is a good looking watch and one that looks like a real watch, not some geeky toy.
It set me back a modest $A255 duty free, but the Q Marshal goes for considerably more than that on line.
After getting it home, though, I’m beginning to wonder if I have bitten off more than I can chew – this watch could be smarter than me.
Like my mobile phone you have to charge it at night and again like my mobile you can alter the appearance electronically, with a zillion different watch face designs to download.
It’s an Android based device that can do a lot of things my phone can, either by itself or in tandem with the phone – I just have to learn how it’s done.
As a brand Fossil makes fashionable, affordable watches that offer plenty of bling and are fun to wear, without worrying too much about losing or damaging them.
It’s not Fossil’s first foray into the smart watch arena.
You might remember the wrist PDA from 2003, a forerunner of today’s smart watches that ran the Palm OS.
The Fossil Wrist PDA released in 2003.
Although I can’t say I owned one the Q Marshal is not my first Fossil, but at 45mm is a little smaller than the others which is a little disappointing.
Because big is better, especially when it comes to smart watches, because more real estate means more precious screen space – screen space as you can imagine is limited.
What it gives away in size, however, the Q Marshal more than makes up for in functionality.
Powered by Android Wear 2.0, the watch is compatible with phones running Android 4.3 and higher as well as iPhone 5/iOS 9+, but the features supported could vary by platform.
All devices feature Bluetooth 4.1 Low Energy with wireless B, G and N connectivity.
Using Bluetooth the watch remains connected to my phone and when I receive notifications they are repeated on my watch – both visually and audibly.
With a built-in speaker and microphone, you can even answer phone calls with the watch – although I’ve haven’t been game enough to try this yet.
This microphone means the watch will also respond to voice commands, with Google Assistant ready and waiting – just hold the power button and say “Ok Google”.
Find answers and get things done even when your hands are full. Reply to a friend that you’re running late, remind yourself to call mum or ask for directions.
What it doesn’t and perhaps it should is a heart rate monitor and built-in GPS – but with activity tracking, it can still keep track of my everyday accomplishments including steps, distance and calories burned.
For example, in my other life as a humble courier, I easily clock up 15,000 steps in a day (a fact I’m grateful for because I’m being paid to lose weight).
But, after seeing this number of steps was consistent, I decided it was safer to no longer wear the watch at work because it could easily be damaged – especially the watch face (scratch resistant or not).
Like a phone you can fit screen protectors to watches, either plastic film or tempered glass – but the trick is working out what size to get.
The specs don’t say what size it is and even Fossil support couldn’t tell me when I contacted them – they suggested I measure it!
LOL. Seriously? If they don’t know, who the hell will?
I tried one tempered glass screen, purchased cheaply from eBay, that turned out to be slightly larger than the actual watch face, but was otherwise okay.
It quickly built up a halo of dust on the exposed underside, which wasn’t a major drama in itself- but a couple of days later I realised it had fallen off.
Back to the drawing board.
The other thing I did was purchase a second watch band.
The Q Marshal features a clever quick release system that allows you to change bands quickly and easily. So I got a nice leather strap that combined with a change of watch face makes it dressier when required.
A single charge in most cases lasts an entire day and to recharge the thing you sit it on a small disc that is attached to the end of a USB cable.
Sounds easy but the system can be finicky unless the watch is sitting in exactly the right position otherwise it won’t charge fully – mind you I’m still trying to work out exactly what the correct position is.
Like a mobile phone you can download plenty of apps for the watch from the Play Store, many of which are free – others come at a small charge.
A real party trick is to download a new watch face with your phone and watch it magically replace the current one on the watch – it’s pretty cool (at least the first few times).
Q Marshal is not the most expensive nor the most sophisticated smart watch available, but it looks like a real watch and is kind of cool.
It’s as good a place as any to put a toe in the water.
It and its competitors are sure to get better with each generation.
In fact, as we speak, the next round of Gen 3 watches have already hit stores.
Physically they are slightly smaller and slimmer than mine, with three side mount buttons instead of one – like a traditional sports watch.
The watch faces also occupies the whole screen this time around, losing the small squared off section at the bottom of the screen that people found annoying.
Other than that the specs are the same and both watches seem to do exactly the same thing.

All kidding aside, though, allow’s take a brief take a look at what is about to move our manner inside the modern smartwatch news.
Android Download
