I’m going to talk about a watch that I would like to own. It’s one of these new smartwatches, a new type of watch that has all the functions and features of a smartphone, but of course, you wear it on your wrist, so it’s even more portable.

Q

where you have seen it

* fashion accessory
* billboards
* in person
* in ‘real life’
* in various department stores
A

And this is a new fashion accessory these days, a new gadget, that I’ve seen advertised everywhere: on billboards in the city center, on TV adverts, and I’ve seen these watches in person, in ‘real life’, in various department stores that I’ve been to when out shopping. And I’m not sure which brand I would buy, but I’ve seen the various brands, and maybe the most famous one at the moment is the Apple Watch.

Q

what you would use it for

* quite convenient for me to be able to organize my life
* check my appointments and work commitments at a glance
* apparently you can track your exercise goals
* steps you're taking
A

I think it would be quite convenient for me to be able to organize my life using one of these watches, and check my appointments and work commitments at a glance. I think it’d even be good maybe for health reasons because apparently you can track your exercise goals, even things like the number of steps you’re taking every day. So that might be quite interesting.

Q

And explain why you would like to own this object

* synchronize
* calendar notifications right there on your wrist
* in terms of the technology
* they’re the ultimate in portable devices
* fan of gadgets
* looks really stunning too
A

The reason I’d like one of these watches is because you can synchronize it with your computer and phone, and so you’ve got all your contacts, your photos and especially calendar notifications right there on your wrist. I think these watches are really practical. It’s just as good as a phone in terms of the technology, but it’s even more portable and also looks really stunning too. Those are the reasons why I think it would be nice to have one.
