TL;DR<\/p>\n

A Galaxy Watch owner has taken the unconventional approach of turning their smartwatch into a pocket watch.
\nThe feat was achieved with the help of a chain link watch band and a pocket watch chain.
\nAccessory makers already produce a similar, but different, accessory called \u201cnurse bands,\u201d made specifically for medical professionals.<\/p>\n

Reddit user Puzzleheaded_Arm8472<\/a> details how they came up with the idea of turning their Galaxy Watch into a pocket watch, and all it took were a couple of accessories to make it happen.<\/p>\n

First, they purchased a standard chain link watch band for the smartwatch as well as a pocket watch chain. All it took from that point was to cut off a majority of the chain link band and simply attach the wearable to the pocket watch chain.<\/p>\n

While the idea seems novel, a similar variation already exists, specifically made for medical professionals. As a fellow user points out<\/a>, Amazon offers plenty of options for third-party \u201cnurse bands\u201d for the Galaxy Watch. This accessory makes it easier to attach or clip the smartwatch to clothing rather than wear it on the wrist.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen Apple Watch owners<\/a> in the past implement a similar idea, so this definitely isn\u2019t the first individual to think of turning their wearable into a pocket watch. It\u2019s probably too niche a segment for accessory makers to seriously consider. But with the number of existing options for converting your old or new smartwatch, that may not be necessary.<\/p>\n
