The upcoming PlayStation Watch doesn't weigh you down with expensive and questionably useful technology. It doesn't measure your heart rate. It doesn't track the steps you take. It doesn't download your email, or connect to the Internet at all.

Dumb is the new smart, and PlayStation Watch is the first dumb watch from your favorite gaming brand.

Sony's "wearable," from Modify Watches, features a clock face adorned with the iconic square, circle, triangle and "X" shapes that are synonymous with PlayStation controllers the world over. The watch is water resistant at depths of up to 100 feet and it's made from the same Plain Jane materials that just about every other wristwatch on the planet is made of. The feature list is short and functional, as it should be.

Starting on May 19, a new PlayStation Watch can be yours for just $45. Use the money you save from not buying a smart watch to add some new games to your library. Have you tried Bloodborne yet? Bloodborne is sweet.
