Supplies in Demand
Try out these new gadgets to make the most of your time, maximize productivity, even stay fit even at the office.

One Smart Watch
Want a stylish smartwatch without the responsibility of one more thing to plug in at night? Enter the Pebble Steel smartwatch, which shows you notifications, has fitness tracking, even music control—and needs to be charged only once a week. (GetPebble.com, $199)

Productive and Fit
Avoid the office slouch with the Lumo Lift. While it counts calories, steps taken and subsequent calories burned, it also vibrates when you slouch, immediately alerting you to sit up straight. A must-have for all desk-dwellers. (LumoBodyTech.com, $99)
