The sales of smartwatches are not picking up right now, but Meizu is still optimistic. Alleged pictures of the Chinese company's first smartwatch have surfaced online, providing a glimpse at a compelling and finely designed wearable.

The alleged photo also shows its retail packaging. The image of a round gray box with the Meizu logo suggests that the company is ready to start shipping the smartwatch soon, according to Xiaomi Today.

The upcoming Meizu smartwatch is said to feature a classy metal casing, tan leather straps, and customizable wallpapers. The control buttons are on the right side of the watch. Rumor has it that the smartwatch will be powered by the Rockchip RK6321 SoC with two Cortex A5 cores. Due to this, there are speculations that the Meizu smartwatch will not run on Android Wear, which only works with Qualcomm chips. Based on the pictures, there also seems to be no flat tyre like the Moto 360.

Meizu recently sent out invites for a press event on August 10. There are speculations that the company would launch the device at the upcoming event. The event may also see the launch of the new Meizu Metal 2 smartphone, an affordable phone with a 5.5-inch 1080p resolution display which is powered by the MediaTek Helio P10 chip and comes with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage.
