Casio unveils rugged Android Wear smartwatch with dual-layer display

This is the Casio Smart Outdoor Watch, model WSD-F10. It is big, it is tough, it is smart, and it is... strangely appealing with its rugged, manly design. It is also a pricey piece of tech goodness when compared to its Android Wear counterparts, but we'll focus on the exact figures later, as we feel like what this puppy stands out with is more important.

Probably the toughest Android Wear watch made so far
On the software side of things, we have Android Wear running the show, meaning that the Casio Smart Outdoor Watch is meant to be paired with an Android device. Sure, you may use it with an iPhone running iOS 8.2 or higher, but you won't be getting the full package. At its core, the user experience should come close to that of using any other Android Wear device – you have access to apps, notifications, and Google Now straight from your wrist. But Casio has built in its own goodies as well. Additional watch faces provide at-a-glance data collected by the wearable's sensors, such as altitude, air pressure, compass directions, your own activity, and much more.
But as we mentioned above, Casio's first smartwatch is an expensive one. It is expected to cost around $500 when it is out, which makes it pricier than most other Android Wear smartwatches. It is also more expensive than a Samsung Gear S2 or an entry-level Apple Watch. But then again, few other smartwatches can withstand the kind of abuse the WSD-F10 is designed to endure.
