Burg, a Dutch manufacturer, launched its first smartwatches over four years ago. In 2009, its first design was instantly awarded first prize for most innovative product

Founder Hermen van den Burg , an award-winning designer from the Netherlands , now has his office situated in Guangzhou, China , where his company has established a factory, research center and showroom. Burg manufactures a variety of smartwatches for men, women and children, sporting a trendy, casual or athletic look. Prices range from $149 to $399 .

What makes the Dutch smartwatch, designed by Burg, superior to Samsung's and Apple's designs is that Burg watches carry a regular SIM card, thus making the watch a fully featured, independently functioning phone. Its rivals, however, all still require a Bluetooth connection between the watch and the phone. In other words, without the connection, these are just ordinary watches; and there's hardly anything smart about that.
