Other European countries that will offer the LG G Watch R include Spain, France, and Italy. The units will be available in early November.

Meanwhile, North American markets like the U.S. and Canada will also sell the circular LG G Watch R very soon. It will be release at about the same time as the Asian and Russian markets.

The new LG G Watch R was first unveiled at the IFA 2014. It comes with a round 1.3-inch plastic OLED display, a powerful Snapdragon 400 processor clocked at 1.2 GHz, a built-in 512 MB RAM, 4 GB internal storage, as well as a 410 mAh battery.

The wearable device has an IP67 certification, which means that it can be used underwater for up to 30 minutes without having to worry if it will break. The units with stainless steel body are also dust and water resistant. It can also be used under direct sunlight, meaning it provides high quality views in any angle.

The users of this wearable device can also change its straps for a more customized feel.
