Earlier today, Google announced that Android Wear is being rebranded to Wear OS, a name that it says "better reflects our technology, vision, and most important of all — the people who wear our watches". Now Google has revealed which of smartwatches will be updated with the new branding.
A Google support page says that in the coming weeks, select watches will begin showing the "Wear OS by Google" name rather than the "Android Wear" one. The update will also change the name of Google's phone app for its smartwatches.
The watches that'll receive an update to Wear OS by Google include:
- Casio PRO TREK Smart WSD-F20
- Casio WSD-F10 Smart Outdoor Watch
- Diesel Full Guard
- Emporio Armani Connected
- Fossil Q Control
- Fossil Q Explorist
- Fossil Q Founder 2.0
- Fossil Q Marshal
- Fossil Q Venture
- Fossil Q Wander
- Guess Connect
- Gc Connect
- Huawei Watch 2 (both cellular & non-cellular versions)
- Hugo BOSS BOSS Touch
- Kate Spade Scallop
- LG Watch Sport

- Nixon Mission
- Polar M600
- Skagen Falster Smartwatch
- TAG Heuer Connected Modular 41
- TAG Heuer Connected Modular 45
- Tommy Hilfiger 24/7 You

Right now, it's unclear if the update to Wear OS will bring any changes other than the new name. It's still nice to know if your watch is getting attention from Google and its manufacturer, though. If you've got one of the smartwatches on the list above, be on the lookout for your Wear OS update!
