Kate Spade Scallop 2 - Hands On at CES 2019

The Kate Spade Scallop is Back with a New Creative Director at the Helm

Kate Spade's popular smartwatch for women, the scallop, has made a comeback this year with a new creative director at the helm. The watch has undergone some subtle design changes and major technological updates, making it an exciting release for fans of the brand.

For those familiar with the original case-made scallop, they will remember what made it so popular in the first place - its unique scalloped design around the bezel. This design has been extended down the watch strap, giving it a sleek and modern look. The scallop design is now available on two straps: one made of metal bracelet and another made of leather.

The new creative director at Kate Spade is particularly interested in two design elements for their products: the scallop and the Spade motif. As a result, both of these design elements have been extended throughout the watch's design. The scallop has become an integral part of the watch's identity, while the Spade motif can be seen at the top of the screen.

One of the most exciting features of the new Kate Spade Scallop is its incorporation of advanced technology. The watch now comes equipped with a heart rate sensor on the back, which can be accessed by tapping on the screen. This feature is available across all screens and operating systems, making it a first for other watches in the market. According to Case By Case, this is a particularly desirable feature for their new watch, as customers have been asking for it.

The Spade motif has also become an integral part of the watch's design, tying in with both the scallop and the overall aesthetic of the brand. This ensures that fans of Kate Spade will be able to identify with their products, even from a distance.

The new Kate Spade Scallop comes in two bodies: one made of gold and another made of rose gold. Both have a thin body and a 1.2-inch screen on the front. Fans of the scalloped design will notice that there is a new button beneath the crown, which serves as a customizable button.

Out of the box, the new button links into one of the really cool features on the original scallop - called "Choose Your Look." This feature allows users to create their own watch face using colors and designs that match their outfit. The idea behind this is to have a personalized watch that can be easily customized to suit individual tastes.

The customizable button is a welcome addition to the watch, as it provides an easy way for users to personalize their experience. Additionally, if users do not need to use the "Choose Your Look" feature, they can still configure their standard watch face for any quick access feature on the watch.

In addition to its design and technology features, the new Kate Spade Scallop also comes with some exciting updates to its functionality. One of these updates is the inclusion of NFC for payments, giving users a convenient way to make transactions on the go. The watch also includes built-in GPS for using it without your phone when you're running.

The new Kate Spade Scallop also features 11 different watch faces, all designed by the brand's creative director. Several of these faces incorporate advanced technology and design elements that will be seen again across other Kate Spade products in the future.

The watch runs on a new version of Android, which has a lovely rotating crown for users to see their notifications. This is just one of the many features that make this watch stand out from its competitors.

Interestingly, Case By Case told us that they didn't prioritize using the latest processor technology - the Snapdragon 3100 - in the scalloped smartwatch due to design and technological considerations. They are happy with being able to meet their design and technological desires using the existing Snapdragon 2100 processor.

The new Kate Spade Scallop will be available for pre-order starting January P8, and it's expected to hit stores at the end of that month. As a result, prices start at $295 for the version with leather strap, up to $35 for the version with metal bracelet.

Overall, the new Kate Spade Scallop is an exciting release for fans of the brand. With its unique design, advanced technology, and personalized features, it's sure to be a hit among those looking for a stylish and functional smartwatch.
