This week, Fossil and Razer have confirmed that they were planning a smartwatch, which is an optically modified Razer version of the original Fossil Gen 6. And now this upcoming Razer x Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch is already listed on GameStop.com.
This information was shared by Mishaal Rahman via his Twitter account and he also mocked that the model was “only” equipped with Wear OS 2.0. One should not forget: The Gen 6 is compatible with Google’s new system update Wear OS 3, which was announced at the beginning of the year.

The system update Wear OS 3 will be activated in 2022. Other updates will also be available to further enhance the user experience. It will be no different with the Razer x Fossil Gen 6.
