CNET's Cheapskate scours the Web for great deals on PCs, phones, gadgets and much more. Questions about the Cheapskate blog? Find the answers on our FAQ page. And find more great buys on the CNET Deals page.

Greetings, cheeps! I'm off-duty this week, but that won't stop me from keeping the cool stuff coming -- starting with this killer contest. (Just to clarify, you may see a day or two this week without a new deal. I know, I know, but it'll be OK. Think of the money you'll save!)

Olio may not be the best-known smartwatch brand, but I suspect after seeing the company's products, you'll be more than happy to win one. Because droooooool....

Olio

Here's what's on the menu for three lucky winners:

What's so special about Olio's watches? If you have eyes, you already know: they're gorgeous. They're made of steel, water-resistant to 50 meters, able to charge wirelessly and compatible with both Android and iOS. Most watches that boast that last feature rely on Android Wear, but Olio uses a custom OS. I wish I could say I've had the chance to test it, but my review unit must have gotten lost in the mail, ahem.

So, how do you enter? Simple: Hit the comments and tell me what you're most looking for in a connected timepiece. (Regular readers know my answer: notifications!) Then scroll down and vote in our poll. Full rules follow -- good luck!
