Take a deep breath. These are not wearables. These watches just tell the time, but they do sport the PlayStation brand, for whatever that&#8217;s worth.<\/p>\n<p>The PlayStation watches are up for pre-purchase at the moment and go for $45.00 (R534.00 at the time of writing). They are water resistant, are made from stainless steel and have a UV-coated silicone strap. By the looks of things, there are only two versions available right now, both of which you can see in the image above.<\/p>\n<p>These are not from Rolex, so don&#8217;t expect the best build quality.
