MK Access Grayson for $99?!?!

[B. Diddy]

Was just at my local TJ Maxx and saw a whole stack of Michael Kors Access Grayson watches, with the black steel version being $99! They also had silver, gold, and navy for $139. I already have the navy blue version (which I got for $150 at TJ Maxx a few months ago), but I was tempted to buy another one, just on principle.

Anyway, if you're looking for a great-looking (and decent-functioning) Wear OS watch, go to your nearest TJ Maxx and see if they have any in the Jewelry section.

Nice... Might want to hold off a bit. Google just bought Fossils smartwatch division for $40M. Although for $99 what the heck!!

WearOS has been great for me since early November. New Google OS, new Google hardware acquisition... Looks like they are finally getting their act together, or at least putting $$$ into the platform.

I figured that acquisition would take at least a year to yield a finished product, so if you're impatient (like me), it might be verrrry difficult to hold off.

Well, my willpower failed me. I bought another one for $99. Nice silver color with black silicone trim on the band!

Ah, that's nice. Watchface is Forza, from the WatchMaster app (not WatchMaker).

Wow that looks Nice!! Great score. Those are consistently over $200 on amazon.
I just got a fossil gen4 explorist in Dec. I like it. 2 days ago I just got its first major WearOS update. Not sure exactly whats different, but it does seem to be stable.

I also picked up an Amazfit Stratos for my trail hiking and backpacking weekends.

Its a good time to be into smart watches.

I like the Explorists as well. You probably got the H update as well -- here's a rundown of the changes: https://support.google.com/wearos/thread/563800?hl=en
