North Edge Mars Pro: Hybrid watch with extensive sensor technology also suitable for swimming

North Edge is offering a new watch, the Mars Pro, at a relatively low price. Specifically, the watch can be ordered via AliExpress at the current price of just under USD 50. Import fees are likely already included in the price. Shipping normally takes place within 12 days and therefore quite quickly for a direct import.

The watch virtually stands in the grey area between a classic digital watch and a smartwatch. It cannot connect to a smartphone, but is equipped with extensive sensor technology. For example, the watch is equipped with a barometer that can measure air pressure and therefore also altitude - changes in the weather can also be registered through rapidly changing air pressure. A compass and a thermometer are also available. An integrated calendar allows the date and day of the week to be displayed for each day. Typical watch functions are also available, such as alarms and a stopwatch.

According to the manufacturer, the watch is made of carbon, which is said to be particularly stable and resistant to chemicals. Oil stains, for example, are unlikely to cause permanent damage. Water resistance is stated to be up to a depth of 50 meters. However, at a weight of 74 grams, the watch is not particularly light.

Other North Edge products, including smartwatches, can be found on Amazon, such as the North Edge Apache Tactical Sports Watch or the North Edge Carbon Fiber Outdoor Watch.
