According to the application, the name is “intended to cover the categories of smartwatches; cases adapted for holding smartwatches; wearable computers in the nature of smartwatches; smartwatch straps; smartwatch bands”.

It certainly matches the description and details that have been given so far by tech analysts and ‘professional’ leakers (yup, it’s a thing): a round, bezel-less watch with a physical crown and two buttons.
