By Samantha Hallock

Watches are no longer just for telling time. With its new Paparazzi model, Swatch has teamed up with MSN Direct to transform timepieces into technological multitaskers capable of providing the wearer with up-to-the-minute news, sports scores, weather reports and stock quotes. Exclusive access to Swatch City, specialized free content provided by Time Out magazine, will keep wearers informed about local cultural events and hip bars in 10 top cities. --By Samantha Hallock
