Apple is alleged to be making its own iWatch.
The product might be ready for launch in six months' time, reports the Chinese news site TGBUS.

The site reveals that sources in the supply chain have said that Apple is building a device using Intel chips and pioneering low-power Bluetooth technology.
The iWatch would be controlled by a 1.5" touchscreen, and Apple's Siri would allow users to control the watch using voice commands.
Rumours come after the makers of accessories for Apple already raised $10 million (£6.16 million) to make the Pebble watch, a Kickstarter project, using Apple's iPod nano.
The large total raised is said to emphasise the high demand for such a product, and has led people to question whether Apple will push to make a similar device first.
However, John Koetsier, writer for tech website Venture Beat, has said: "It needs to be much more than a watch, and much more than a way to communicate with the device that is already just a few inches away in your pocket.
"Would the company that reinvented the computer, the phone and the way we consume media be aiming so low?"
