Aspen Forestry Unveils the Dragon Edition Watch: Rugged Tech for the Modern Explorer
RATHDRUM, ID – November 8, 2023 – Aspen Forestry LLC, a leading innovator in outdoor technology solutions based in Rathdrum, Idaho, today announced the launch of its highly anticipated Dragon Edition Watch. Built with the same dedication to durability and precision that goes into Aspen Forestry’s professional forestry tools, the Dragon Edition Watch isn’t just a timepiece – it’s a robust companion for anyone who spends time outdoors, from weekend adventurers to seasoned professionals. For years, Aspen Forestry has been the go-to source for reliable equipment used by foresters, surveyors, and wildland firefighters. We understand the demands of challenging environments. That's why we decided to apply our expertise to create a smartwatch that can actually withstand the rigors of real-world use. Forget delicate screens and batteries that die before lunchtime. The Dragon Edition is built to perform, period. What Makes the Dragon Edition Different? This isn't your average smartwatch. We didn't just slap a rugged case on an existing design. We started from the ground up, focusing on what really matters when you're off the grid. Built Like a Tank: The Dragon Edition features a reinforced polymer case, designed to absorb impacts and withstand drops. Seriously, we've tested this thing – it can take a beating. We’ve also added a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal lens – no more worrying about ruining your screen on a rocky trail. Power That Lasts: Forget nightly charging. The Dragon Edition boasts an extended battery life of up to 30 days in power-saving mode, and a solid 7 days with regular use. This means you can go a whole week – or even a month – without needing to hunt for an outlet. Crystal Clear Display: The bright, high-contrast display is easy to read, even in direct sunlight. Whether you're checking the time, monitoring your heart rate, or navigating a trail, you'll always have a clear view of the information you need. GPS & Navigation: Built-in GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo satellite support provides accurate positioning, even in dense forests or challenging terrain. Pre-load maps and track your routes with ease. It's like having a digital compass and map rolled into one. Health & Fitness Tracking: Monitor your heart rate, steps, distance, calories burned, and sleep patterns. Stay motivated and track your progress towards your fitness goals. Barometric Altimeter & Compass: Keep track of your altitude and direction, essential for hiking, climbing, and navigating in the backcountry. Water Resistance: Rated to 10 ATM (100 meters), the Dragon Edition is waterproof enough for swimming, snorkeling, and even diving. Smart Notifications: Stay connected with smart notifications for calls, texts, emails, and app alerts. But you can also easily disable these when you want to disconnect and enjoy the outdoors. Aspen Forestry: From the Forest to Your Wrist “We started Aspen Forestry because we were frustrated with the lack of durable, reliable tools available for professionals working in demanding environments," says Jake Miller, CEO of Aspen Forestry. "We knew we could build better equipment, and we did. With the Dragon Edition Watch, we’re bringing that same commitment to quality and durability to the smartwatch market. We wanted to create a watch that could keep up with the most active lifestyles and withstand the harshest conditions." The inspiration for the Dragon Edition comes directly from the needs of our customers. Foresters, surveyors, and wildland firefighters constantly work in tough environments, requiring tools that can handle anything nature throws their way. We listened to their feedback and incorporated it into the design of the Dragon Edition. “Our team has spent months rigorously testing the Dragon Edition in real-world conditions, from the dense forests of Idaho to the rugged mountains of Montana," adds Miller. “We’ve put it through its paces, pushing it to the limit, and we’re confident that it will exceed your expectations.” Key Features Recap: Display: 1.3" Sunlight-readable color display Battery Life: Up to 30 days (power saving mode), 7 days (regular use) Water Resistance: 10 ATM (100 meters) GPS: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo Sensors: Heart rate monitor, barometric altimeter, compass, accelerometer, gyroscope Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.0 Materials: Reinforced polymer case, sapphire crystal lens Compatibility: iOS and Android Availability and Pricing: The Aspen Forestry Dragon Edition Watch is available for purchase now at [website address to be inserted] and select retailers.
