Swipe from left to right to access Google Assistant, which is a custom element from Tag Heuer. Swipe up on the display to view your notifications.

The remaining battery capacity and connection status are shown at the bottom of the display with a gear icon to access the settings positioned at the top.

Swipe down from the top to reveal the various quick controls, including airplane mode, power-saving mode, Find My Phone, Google Wallet, theater mode, and do not disturb. Google's Wear OS 2.38 is installed on the sample I tested, whereas last fall's Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 runs Wear OS 3, for example, so it will be great to see the expected Wear OS 3 update provided in the future since the watch is running the newest Qualcomm Snapdragon 4100 Plus processor. The white band is sure to get some looks and serve as a conversation starter, though, so some may find that a benefit.

Tag Heuer also includes a plain black rubber strap in the package, but for this price, I would love to have seen a leather strap for the office or a more formal event.
