Kempler & Strauss, one of the world-leading designers and manufacturers of innovative mobile devices and wireless technology products, has just announced the showcase of what is claimed to be the world's smallest GSM quad-band cell phone dress watch at CTIA Wireless 2010, and also the unveiling of a limited edition gold version of its W PhoneWatch. In the picture above, you can see the regular model, but aside from the "coat," there's no difference between them. This is a must-steal catchword, as the company said this was developed for the likes of you that "want to appear more chic than geek."

“Interest and demand for our W PhoneWatch has been growing exponentially month-over-month since we first showed the product at the CTIA Wireless I.T. show last fall and now that the product has begun shipping, we’re very excited to get it into the hands and onto the wrists of our customers. We truly believe that the W PhoneWatch is going to revolutionize the way in which people communicate,” explained Isaac Calderon, President of Kempler & Strauss.

If you're curious on how limited this is, then mind you know that the company will deliver 1,000 pieces of its gold W PhoneWatches in Q3 2010, shipping consumers with versatility and convenience of a (smart?) cell phone, in the shape of an elegant wristwatch, and a stylish wireless handset, called Communicator, that you can see next to the watchphone above, which customers can use as a miniature phone to talk on.

"We know that W PhoneWatch will not replace Smartphones as the primary communications device for the majority of our customers. However, there is a very legitimate application for wearable cell phone technology, particularly among active individuals that require the safety and convenience of continuous cell phone service without the need or desire to carry a traditional cell phone handset. The W PhoneWatch comes in a variety of attractive sporty color combinations for active individuals while our new gold version is ideal for wear as a dress watch suitable for even the most formal of occasions,” added Calderon.

Details, for the more tech-savvy, include GSM standards with 850MHz, 900MHz and 1,900MHz bands, as well as a 1.5-inch TFT LCD micro-touch touchscreen, with a resolution of 128 x 128, and 260,000 color depth. With no pricing available for the gold model, I can at least reinform you that the W PhoneWatch has a tag of $199.
