In recent weeks, there has been growing indications that Apple, Samsung and Sony are all working on wearable devices.  

Last week, Sony announced the latest version of its SmartWatch — a water-resistant device with NFC, according to PCWorld.  And Samsung said recently that it is working on a smart watch.

The New York Times reported in February that Apple was experimenting with the design of a device similar to a wristwatch that would operate on the same iOS platform as its iPhone and iPad and would be made with curved glass.
