Pixel Watch 5 gets its own ‘Stephen Curry Edition’ with exclusive band and watch face [Gallery]
The Pixel Watch 5 might offer a much more robust experience than the display-less Fitbit Air that Google launched earlier this year, but that doesn’t mean the smartwatch team isn’t pulling from the Air’s playbook . Alongside all of the standard options for the Pixel Watch 5, Google is also launching a special Steph Curry-branded variant for those of us focused on athletics over all else.

Google has unveiled a limited edition Pixel Watch 5, named after NBA star Stephen Curry. This special edition comes with a unique band and watch face, exclusive to this limited release. The band, designed to be sweat-resistant, features a recycled polyester yarn and HNBR with a waterproof coating. It also includes a raised interior print to improve airflow and prevent irritation.
The watch face, however, is exclusive to this edition, offering a color scheme not available on other Google wearables. The band is sold as a package deal with the watch face, requiring a customer to choose it at checkout. This band comes in a one-size fit for wrists between 165 and 215mm, but it is only available in the larger 45mm watch size.
Pre-orders for the Pixel Watch 5 Stephen Curry Edition begin now, with the watch hitting stores on September 3rd. It costs $579, slightly more than the regular edition. The standard Pixel Watch 5 launches on the same day, providing consumers an option to choose between the special edition and the standard model.
