These watches empower student-athletes and fans alike to represent their teams while staying on top of their fitness goals. A true testament to mWell’s commitment to health innovation in partnership with the UAAP.

Each watch is proudly styled with school logos and color-matching straps, capturing the heart of every university’s athletic spirit.

mWell Chairman and MPIC Chairman and CEO Manuel V. Pangilinan shares, “This partnership between the UAAP and mWell manifested from our mutual drive to support the well-being of young people. These special edition wearables—linked to the mWell platform—will equip students, athletes, and the entire UAAP community with the tools to actively manage their health and reach peak performance.”

The Power and Prestige Sport watches come loaded with advanced essential health features, including blood pressure and heart rate monitor, making them perfect for tracking physical activities across 100 sports modes. Paired with the mWell app, each watch allows tracking of daily mWellness Score based on exercise, light activity, sedentary time, and step count. Monitoring the mWellness Score daily and consistently aiming for a good score helps lessen the risk of chronic disease and is crucial in reaching fitness goals.
