Hi All,
I want to buy a watch style dive computer and have also seen the latest "smart watches" that connect with smart phones to get texts and answer phone calls and emails etc. Wondering whether any of the watch style dive computers have integrated some or all of that extra capability.
 
nothing yet. I'm sure someone is working on it.
Touch screens don't work underwater so you have to have some other way to control the computer that makes it a bit larger than most people want on top of having to add in the sensors themselves that are not really big, but not small
 
Nope

It's a trivially small market from a consumer products perspective.
 
Thank you both for the responses. That's what I figured, but I was hoping. Would have been nice to be able to buy/use one all-purpose device...
 
There is nothing that does what you asked for. There is one that LOOKS like what you're asking for. But, it's really just looks. Watch style. Color screen (but not a touch screen). And it does connect to your smartphone to let you change settings.
