LG G Watch R drops from $299 to $249 following Watch Urbane release

Just moments after the LG Watch Urbane became available on the Google Store, the price of LG’s G Watch R has dropped from $299 to $249. As pointed out before, the Watch Urbane is similar to the G Watch R in almost every way except for design. The G Watch R features stainless steel body with a brushed metal finish, while the Watch Urbane features a more high-end look and is available in gold and silver.

The G Watch R features a 1.3-inch OLED display with a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 300 processor and 410mAh battery. It’s also dust resistant and can be immersed in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes.
