Montblanc Summit 2 is One of the First Snapdragon Wear 3100 Watches, Arrives October

Qualcomm talked a lot about its new Snapdragon Wear 3100 platform today, but what they didn't have much to say on was the release timing of the first watches running it The best information we got surrounded Louis Vuitton, Fossil, and Montblanc, which are all in line to make and sell 3100-powered watches before the holidays, and Montblanc's will probably be the first At the end of their Wear 3100 presentation, Qualcomm did announce that Montblanc's new Summit 2 Wear OS watch should be here by October.

Unless something changes, it will likely be the first you can buy How much will it cost? I don't know, but the original Montblanc Summit started at $930 This new one, especially since it's running the newest Qualcomm chipset, is almost guaranteed to not be priced much cheaper.

One thing to note, as far as specs and Wear 3100 go, is that the platform includes GPS and NFC A Qualcomm rep told me that they wanted to make those features standard, rather than let watch makers pick and choose as much as they did with the 2100 Almost every watch you buy should include the base specs you'll want.
