Well it looks like Sony is finally ready to commercialise the product, with Sony Japan announcing that it expects to start retail sales of the “FES Watch” from 21 November 2015. Initially the watch will be on sale at select retailers, such as the MoMA Design Store. before widening distribution in December. Pre-orders for the watch are available at the above outlet from today.
