A slimmed-down Moto 360 is shown next to the current model.

In one picture, from well-known Motorola facebook page hellomotoHK, a smaller model is on a wrist next to the current Moto 360. This would be a wise move to appeal to a wider variety of potential customers, since not all wrists are created equal. HellomotoHK has a mixed track record, but the photo looks legit jibes well with other rumors we’ve heard about the Moto 360 lately.

The other picture, posted to ibo (think: China’s Facebook) shows a model that looks rather similar to the current edition, with the crown moved to the 2 o’clock position. This resembles previously leaked photos design rumors. 

y this matters: Usually when such leaks show up it means the final version is almost ready. The Moto 360 was the first premium-grade Android ar watch, though it took a few software updates to cut back on some of the battery life issues it had at launch. Smartwatches are still a rather new product, so with each iteration we should see more improvements in design engineering.
