Fossil has just unveiled its newest generation Hybrid smartwatch for people wanting a middle ground between a traditional watch and a modern smartwatch.

The Fossil Gen 6 Hybrid combines the best of both worlds by offering the style and look of classy watches but also smart features found in smartwatches, most notably support for Amazon Alexa.
