Besides introducing a new phone and wireless earbuds, Nothing’s sub-brand CMF, has also announced the Watch Pro 2. This is the brand’s second-generation smartwatch which now offers a round display instead of a squarish form factor of the first generation model. While round smartwatches aren’t new, the Watch Pro 2’s main party trick is its interchangeable bezel design.
CMF Watch Pro 2 Malaysia Pricing and Availability
The CMF Watch Pro 2 is officially priced at RM339 in Malaysia, the same price as its predecessor. If you wish to customise the looks, CMF is offering the Bezel + Strap set for RM99.
The CMF Watch Pro 2 will be widely available in Malaysia starting 15th July, but you can already pre-order your unit online via Lazada and Shopee. The smartwatch is available in 4 colours – Dark Grey, Ash Grey, Orange and Blue.

The screen boasts a 60Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 620 nits for improved outdoor visibility.
