Casio just turned its wild Ring Watch into an actual smart ring with health tracking

TL;DR Casio has just launched its first smart Ring Watch, known as the CRW-H001, featuring a small LCD panel and health/fitness tracking. The wearable can track a wide range of workouts and monitor heart rate, body temperature, and blood oxygen levels, among other features. Casio is currently selling the CRW-H001 Ring Watch only in China, with no word yet on a global launch.

Casio introduced the bizarre-looking Ring Watch in late 2024 , mirroring the design of a classic Casio wristwatch, but designed to be worn on your finger. The manufacturer is now taking this concept one step further with its new offering, featuring a similar retro timepiece design, but with all the attributes you’d expect from a modern-day smart ring. The Japanese watchmaker has released the CRW-H001, which doesn’t look too dissimilar to the old Ring Watch.

It even features a similar LCD panel that can show the time and set a stopwatch or alarms for you. However, as the Chinese product page reveals, this smart ring can do a lot more, including monitoring the wearer’s heart rate, blood oxygen level, and body temperature (via Gizmodo ).
