One way to stand out in the crowded smartwatch and activity tracker market is to hit the high end and produce a luxury device: this is what Garmin's done, with the Fenix Chronos. Depending on if you specify a leather or a stainless steel band, the Fenix Chronos will set you back $1,699 and $1,849 respectively. There's a wrist heart rate monitor, global positioning system (GPS) and GLONASS location finders, altimeter, barometer, and compass inside the Fenix Chronos.
