PORTER CLASSIC has created a luxe silver [Apple Watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-concept-x-blvck-paris). The new luxury item transforms the smartwatch into a pocket-style timepiece. PHAETON sells the luxury smartwatch for an $810 USD price point.

The case is created by hand using different precious metals, which are molded to fit the [Apple Watch Series 4](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aulumu-a01-apple-watch-ultra-case). The watch is also attached to a clasp that connects the PORTER CLASSIC watch to the chain. The chain is a ROYALTY 3-WAY CHAIN, and connects the clasp of the watch to the smartwatch face.

The luxury smartwatch combines the technology of a smartwatch with a pocket-style watch chain. This new device from PORTER CLASSIC has a design that combines current technology with the much older aesthetic of a [pocket watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seiko-presage-craftsmanship-series-porter). The silver Apple Watch provides customers with a more unique smartwatch.
