A new emergency alarm watch with GPS tracking and an integrated mobile phone has been launched by Masternaut Three X.

Designed as a discreet personal protection solution, the robust and waterproof LoKate wrist watch incorporates a miniature mobile phone and GPS receiver with a panic button allowing mobile workers to call for help discreetly if in danger.

Using the in-built tracker linked to the internet, the alarm location is immediately pinpointed on Microsoft Virtual Earth maps or aerial photography by a dedicated control centre that monitors the user around the clock, seven days a week.

The control centre can then alert the emergency services or another member of staff that assistance is required.
