Hello holdemadvantage,
I have another smartwatch, my smartwatch is sale by italian company (
http://mlais.it) is thsi one:
my smartwatch is an android totaly independly of smartphone, with simcard, 3g, gps, etc etc.
but in my company I was programmed with Gear Samsung and you have some restriction like DON´T work WEBVIEW for example, DONT have a independly GPS.
BUT in some new versions of SAMSUNG GEAR you have nano simcard, gps, etc. like this model:

I programmed in old versions and I have many problems and my company choose for models with complete features (more complete and more cheaper)
In the new versions of SAMSUNG GEAR I don´t know about WEBVIEW (this is an important thing to check out)
beast regards
