Got this watch from Clove yesterday and I am over the moon with it! It is my first smart watch, but I did a load of research first and I know I have picked the right one! I particularly wanted a watch that looked like a watch.

Now that the Apple Watch is here, what's Google going to do for Android Wear, Act 2? We may get a more detailed roadmap at Google's big I/O developer conference later this month, but in the meantime, the LG Watch Urbane just might be the raising of the curtains.
Crisp, classic design; fully round, beautiful OLED display; latest Android Wear support; Wi-Fi antenna connects to phone across different Wi-Fi networks; decent battery life (for Android Wear)
Big design won't appeal to many wrists; Android Wear software still doesn't feel all that smooth to use; Wi-Fi connectivity spotty at times; watch is expensive compared to other Android Wear options
The LG Watch Urbane is the first Android Wear watch on the market following the much-hyped launch of the Apple Watch. How does it stack up against Apple's offering, and Android Wear in general?
Today's best Android smartwatch display; Comes with the latest version of Android Wear; Good battery life
Expensive; Bulky; Not much of an upgrade over the LG G Watch R
The Watch Urbane is, in my utterly subjective opinion, the best-looking Wear device yet announced. The Huawei Watch and Moto 360 also look nice, but the Huawei Watch simply is too generic "steel luxury watch" for me, and while the 360 is definitely quite stylish with the right face, I've never been...
Really, really nice The Watch Urbane feels just as nice as it looks - nicer even, perhaps; The polished body is gorgeous, and the subtle design changes make it a much more elegant piece than the G Watch R, Wear 5.1 Android Wear 5.1 adds some new features and overhauls the Wear UI in a few areas, but...
Round screens are still a mixed bag A smaller standard font size and font size options (new in Wear 5.1) make a significant difference compared to the G Watch R; but rectangular text layouts on a circular screen are a difficult pitfall to avoid unless you make the screen really big; $350 It's the...
The Watch Urbane , LG's latest Android Wear smartwatch, is what you get when you take the company's G Watch R , replace its plastic case with stainless steel and swap out the generic leather strap with a stitched one.
You can understand why Android enthusiasts might be resentful of the Apple Watch. Android Wear has been around long enough for manufacturers like LG to release several generations of smartwatch, but listen to some and you'd be excused for thinking Cupertino had invented the segment.
My wife and I both have very skinny wrists. I took a gamble and bought two of these - as Christmas gifts for each other - sight unseen. Admittedly, it does look big on our wrists, but that seems to be the fad right now. Within a few days, we both no longer noticed how large the watch is.
The LG Urbane is one of the bolder Android Wear watches, and it currently sells for less than the self-appointed style guru Huawei Watch. Not everyone's going to like the look, though. It's a bit bulky and a bit flash.
Bold look; Decent quality construction; Always-on screen option
Poor heart rate tracker; Chunky and unsubtle design; 1.5 day battery life is so-so
Along with its new Android Wear Urbane model, LG was showing off a rather different kind of smartwatch: the Watch Urbane LTE. As the name suggests, the watch has built-in 4G, but it also runs LG's own Wearable OS operating system.
The best Android wear smartwatch we've worn... so far
