Second, the watch case is made of anodized aluminum, considerably cheaper than stainless steel and obviously much more than gold material. Finally, although the straps are interchangeable, which come by default with the device are plastic, unlike the rest of ranges, allowing the company to offer a lower price than other forward and provide thus a line a little cheaper entrance, in the line of products that are launching their main competitors.
