Leatherman announces its first timepiece

Back in 2015, Leatherman introduced the Tread line of products that brings a customizable set of tools in a convenient wrist band. Now, the leader of the US multi-tool market takes one more step forward and announces its first timepiece, a watch that uses the Tread band and is simply called Tempo Tread Watch.

While most of the specs are not public yet, we know that the Leatherman Tempo Tread Watch has glow-in-the-dark hands and markers, is protected by a sapphire crystal shield, and is able to handle water down to a depth of 200 meters. Users of the existing Tread band will be able to add their tools to the watch since the Tempo Tread Watch is TSA-friendly.

Although it does not come cheap, the US$575 Leatherman Tread Watch has six links with various tools in the retail package. Unfortunately, it will only become available for purchase in November.
