OK. If this is real — and there is some indication that it is — then we’ve got ourselves a genuine breakthrough. We reported that TAG is making a phone, but we had no idea that it would be a damn watch phone. TAG Heuer has pretty much gone the sports route, offering quartz pieces to unsuspecting rubes. However, if this phone/watch comes to fruition, they’ll have a hit on their hands.

Keep in mind that these are just mock-ups and there is no indication of how thick this thing is. The UI looks fairly basic — a crown for scrolling through selections along with an MP3 player mode. My question is this, however — how the heck did that stuff all that garbage into there and how do you talk into it. Dick Tracy, here we come.
