If your talking about a watch that actually reads your blood sugar in a non-invasive manner my own reading on the subject would indicate they are at best very unreliable at worst they don’t work at all. If you mean getting your blood sugar displayed on your smart watch from a cgm, then yes that is possible, though I’ve never managed it reliably!

Hi,
There have been people who have invested & tested these devices? (One guy tested 3 together with the BG meter.)
Not a great review… I’ve also seen reviews from other diabetics on Amazon. In the same vein, not favourable. (But I do appreciate them for pointing this out.)
But there are watches that can pick up from apps that read sensors that read from interstitial fluid which are a better bet.. (if you use a sensor in conjunction with a smartphone.)
At the moment. The tech for reading BG levels using some form of light beam? (Costing less than a more expensive generic smart watch.) is “fool’s gold.”
Hope this helps..?
