Unique Watches With Moving Flowers And Words

by on February 7, 2013

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “good things come to those who wait.” Yeah, it’s a cliche – but this watch is making it literal. The design from Mr. Jones Watches has a hidden message on the face that only reveals itself as the letters slide into place once an hour.

If you’re too impatient for that design, the company has also released a watch inspired by a phlox flower. It forms the flower at certain times during the day, but the rest of the time it looks like a beautiful kaleidoscope image. Floriography – “the Victorian system for ascribing a specific meaning to different flowers” - influenced this watch so it also has an engraving on the back.

Both watches are limited to 100 pieces.

Check out the floral watch after the break.

Gorgeous TRON Identity Disk Watch Designs

by on January 28, 2013

The neon lighting in TRON is made for high fashion – brightly colored trim against black almost always works. Design student Alexander Morgan thought it would be perfect for watches, and he came up with concept art that definitely has the feel of the movies. Even if you’re not familiar with TRON, the designs still work because they’re simple yet fashionable.

Tokyoflash Kisai Adjust Watch With LED Color Changing Display [Video]

by on January 23, 2013

The new Tokyoflash Kisai Adjust watch features an LED display that shows the time in a pattern of triangles. It works horizontally or vertically and can be set for either 12 or 24 hour time. You can also see the date, set an alarm and even change the color to one of six choices that can also be set to an animated display.

This is the 9th fan idea that has become a reality through submissions on the Tokyoflash blog. It came from Nicolas Hélin of Belgium who wanted a watch that was both simple and futuristic at the same time. As with other Tokyoflash watches, this will be made in limited quantities and once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.

Put a Kraken On Your Wrist

by on January 21, 2013

As steampunk creeps ever closer to becoming mainstream (if it’s not there already), token symbols like gears and brass are ending up in more and more designs. Take for example this very fancy watch. Called the KudoKtopus Kraken by designer Stefan Kudoke, the timepiece features a giant squid that looks entangled in the watches inner workings.

The kraken’s tentacles snake through the interior in rose gold and rhodium studded with two sapphire crystals. The way the octopus is integrated isn’t like anything I’ve seen before, and I have to admit that it’s a stunning piece.

Wouldn’t it just figure? I finally see a watch I wouldn’t mind wearing every day, and it costs almost $10,000. I’ll just stick to checking the time on my iPhone.

by on January 18, 2013

The CST-01 watch is currently on Kickstarter and it’s already fully-funded with $492,000 pledged toward an original goal of just $200,000. The Kickstarter goes until February 22nd which means there’s plenty of time for you to back the project and be one of the first to get these watches when they ship in September.

It’s incredibly thin, measuring .80mm thick and weighing just 12 grams. The whole thing is made from a single piece of stainless steel with an e-ink face and all the necessary components tucked against the steel. It’s got a micro energy cell that can charge 10,000 times and will last 15 years and includes a base that’s used for charging and setting the time.

Gorgeous Watches Blend Steampunk With LEDs

by on December 20, 2012

There are steampunk watches, and then there are steampunk watches. These beautiful designs by Etsy seller Rubbertoe Rayguns are definitely in the latter (cooler) category. He mixes Italian leather, aluminum, and LEDs to create watch designs that aren’t like any I’ve seen before. They really nail the mix between Victorian aesthetics and modern technology.

He has a few different styles listed in the shop, and it looks like they’re customizable to a certain degree. Be sure to ask before you purchase!

Tokyoflash Reveals New Space Digits Watch

by on December 5, 2012

Tokyoflash keeps coming up with watches that look sleek and futuristic. The Kisai Space Digits design is on par with others they’ve released this year; it’s innovative and displays time in a way I’ve not seen before. It’s simple to read once you know what you’re looking for: the time is displayed from left to right and the date is from top to bottom.

The gadget-accessory has the basics like an alarm, an EL backlight, and a crystal clear LCD interface. You can get the band in black, gold, or silver. It’s the type of watch that gets noticed.

New Kisai Polygon Watch From Tokyoflash

by on November 28, 2012

Tokyoflash has introduced a gorgeous new watch design: the Kisai Polygon. The stainless steel watch has angled surfaces and mirrored LCD segments that present the time in a different and easy to read way.

Twelve polygons on the outer ring of the display showcase the hours; they’re in the same place they would be on a regular clock. The six triangles in the next ring represent the minute hands, and single minutes are displayed in the center of the display. It takes a second but once you look at the examples, you’ll be able to tell what time it is with a glance.

The Kisai Polygon design is limited so if you want one, buy it now.
