Swatch declares it’s taking on the Apple Watch head on – details

Bloomberg.com reports that Swatch plans to bring its answer to the Apple Watch to market in the next 90 days.

“The device will communicate via the Internet “without having to be charged,” Chief Executive Officer Nick Hayek said in an interview. The Swatch smartwatch will also let consumers make mobile payments and work with Windows and Android software, he said.”

The simple solution would be for Apple to buy Swatch and shut it down, or an Apple competitor buy and expand the program or potentially Swatch and other watch makers challenge Apple successfully.  I’m really hoping we have tons of competition.
