Essentially a quad band GSM, the multifunctional device works all over the world. All you need to do is insert a SIM card and start your chatter with family and friends, and access multimedia facilities anywhere, anytime. In addition, the watch phone comes with an accurate 1.3-inch touchscreen LCD display for easy menu navigation and quick dialing with your fingers.
