It was previously reported that the Samsung Gear S3 looks similar to a Rolex watch that contains the word de Grisogono. This was posted by Tizen Café last month. However, it is still unknown if this is a real-deal or is just an edited photo.

Phone Arena reported that upon closer inspection, the leaked image contains a logo that bears resemblance to the logo of de Grisogono. Letters can also be seen on the watch's face but are very hard to read. The posted images also looks like promotional photos for the upcoming smartwatch, the luxury and limited editions. The two leaked images are a bit over-exposed and of low quality, but a moon-phase and three sub-dials are recognizable in the second picture.

De Grisogono is a luxury jeweler based in Geneva, Switzerland established by Fawaz Gruosi, an expert when it comes to black diamonds. The company also revealed earlier that they are working with Samsung and would release their own version of the Gear S3, a luxurious version.

Meanwhile, the Samsung Gear S3 is internally known as Solis and is said to contain the Tizen OS, just like its predecessor. It was previously rumored that the South Korean tech giant will not try to use Google's Android Wear OS again on their devices because of battery efficiency and platform issues, Trusted Reviews stated. However, Samsung made it clear that they did not make any statement with regards to the Android Wear.

The Samsung Gear S3 Is also expected to continue with its round-face design, have the rotating bezel for control and manipulation and a slightly larger display, and feature a much wider selection of watch faces and bands.

Fans are expecting that the Samsung Gear 3 will be revealed at IFA 2016 in Berlin.
