Mascom International stocks the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch at KSh 7,100, brand new and sealed, built around a 1.43-inch AMOLED display at 466 x 466 pixels. The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch handles calls over Bluetooth 5.2, holds an IP68 rating and runs up to 5 days on its 400mAh battery. It tops up on a wireless charging base instead of pins or clips. The silver dial sits on a matching metal strap, and the box includes an adjustment tool so you can remove links for a snug fit. It is ready for collection at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for executives, lawyers, accountants, bank managers and NGO directors across Kenya, the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch looks like a classic steel watch while handling calls and alerts. Many wrist gadgets look out of place with a suit at a board meeting in Upper Hill. This one pairs a round steel case with a crisp AMOLED face, so it fits a client lunch in Kilimani as easily as a Saturday at the Nairobi Arboretum. Any heart rate or activity figures it shows are for wellness tracking only and never stand in for medical advice.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell metal-strap watches without the tool to resize them, Mascom International packs the adjuster in the box and will fit the band for you at the counter. Customers across Nairobi tell us the 5-day battery means the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch survives a work trip to Kisumu or Mombasa without its charger. At Mascom International, we're seeing professionals choose it as a corporate gift. Drop by Kimathi Street to feel its weight on your wrist, or order the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch
How much does the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch cost in Kenya?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch costs KSh 7,100 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, sold sealed in Silver. The price covers the watch with its metal strap fitted, the wireless charging base, the strap adjustment tool and a 12-month warranty. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so M-Pesa or cash changes hands only when it reaches you. It is KSh 1,800 more than the Porodo Belle Lady Smart Watch and KSh 4,000 more than the Porodo Aerofit Sport Smartwatch.
What do I get with the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch over the Porodo Aerofit Sport Smartwatch?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch adds a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen, Bluetooth calling, IP68 sealing, wireless charging and a metal strap, for KSh 4,000 more than the Porodo Aerofit Sport Smartwatch. The Aerofit has a wider 2.01-inch IPS display and a sport strap but stops at IP65. Pick the Chrono Steel if you want a formal look and calls from the wrist. Pick the Aerofit if your budget is tight and you mainly count steps at the gym.
How do I resize the metal strap on the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch ships with a strap adjustment tool that pushes out the small pins holding each link. Remove links evenly from both sides of the clasp so the dial stays centred on your wrist. Keep the spare links in a safe place in case you want a looser fit later. If you would rather not do it yourself, our staff on Kimathi Street will size the band for you free when you collect it.
Does wireless charging on the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch help during KPLC power cuts?
Wireless charging on the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch makes topping up simple, and the base runs from any USB power source, including a power bank. During a KPLC outage you can plug it into a charged power bank and rest the watch on it. With up to 5 days per charge, a single blackout evening rarely matters. You also avoid bent pins and loose clips, which often fail on cheaper watches in dusty Nairobi conditions.
Can the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch take calls on Safaricom, Airtel and Telkom?
Yes, the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch handles calls from any Kenyan network, including Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom, through your paired phone. It has no SIM slot. Bluetooth 5.2 carries each call to the watch's microphone and speaker, letting you talk while your phone stays in a jacket pocket or briefcase. That is handy when you are driving through Westlands traffic or carrying files between offices in the CBD. Hands-free calling while driving still calls for care, so pull over for long conversations.
Is the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch safe to wear in the rain or near water?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch is IP68 rated, so dust, rain, sweat and handwashing will not harm it. The 6 in IP68 means fully dust-tight, and the 8 means tested for immersion in fresh water. Steel straps can hold moisture between links, so wipe the band dry after heavy rain. Avoid hot water, saunas and salt water on the coast, since heat and salt wear down seals over time.
How long does the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch battery last in daily use?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch lasts up to 5 days on its 400mAh battery under typical use. Frequent calls through the watch and bright screen settings bring that figure down, while lighter use keeps you close to five days. For most owners, one charge on a Sunday evening and another mid-week covers a full working week. The larger battery is one reason the case is bigger than slimmer fashion watches. Lowering screen brightness indoors is the simplest way to stretch each charge.
Who should buy the Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch and who should skip it?
The Porodo Chrono Steel Smart Watch is a strong choice for professionals who want a steel dress watch that also takes calls and lasts several days. Skip it if you have a slim wrist or prefer a light, colourful look; the Porodo Belle Lady Smart Watch is the better fit there. Skip it too if you only need step counts for the gym, since the Porodo Aerofit Sport Smartwatch does that for much less. Swimmers should also look elsewhere, since IP68 is tested in fresh water, not pool laps.
