If you combines the digital clock with the analog clock, then the result is the Digilog Clock. Designed by Masayoshi Suzuki, the clock shows hours as a digital digit and minutes with an analog hand. [DesignBoom]

Tokyoflash Rogue Watch


Tokyoflash has recently unveiled another uneasy-to-read wristwatch. The Tokyoflash Rogue Watch comes with a cool green LED light that secretly tells you the current time. I am sure if you wear this timepiece, you will get stopped every day by people asking you what it is. Tokyoflash also provides us a little information on how to read this unique watch.
The outer ring of small dots represents minutes, every fifth dot being slightly smaller to distinguish five minute groups. The ring of large blocks represents rough minutes, the position of the gap indicating approximate minutes in groups of five. The inner ring of blocks represents hours, the position of the gap in the ring showing the current hour as on a clock face.
Available in silver or black finish, the Rogue watch retails for $154. [SlipperyBrick]

Tokyoflash Retrofit Watch


Time and tide waits for no man, they say. Well, I can’t help you with the tide - ever since my grandmother was swallowed practically whole by some quicksand during a holiday on the East coast of Scotland I’ve been petrified of the sea - but time, yes, I am your wristwatch saviour.

Run, don’t walk, to Tokyoflash and snap up this chunkily gorgeous retro-styled timepiece. Slick with bargain juice at a paltry $128, it’s a great two-fingered salute to the drably predictable “waterproof to 100m” multi-dial divers’ watches men are supposed to like.

Day&Night watch is no timepiece


If you’re looking for a new watch, the Day&Night by Romain Jerome isn’t exactly going to be your first choice. It’s not because it isn’t cool looking. It’s pretty awesome, actually. There’s just one problem. It doesn’t tell time.

In very post-apocalyptic fashion, the Day&Night watch has no display or hands to tell the hours, minutes or seconds. Rather, it can only tell you two things: whether it is day or night.
According to the official website, the watch works by showing:
A new interpretation of Time based around two Tourbillons operating sequentially. The Day Tourbillon operates during the day, defining the wearer’s period of activity, and stops after twelve hours, handing over to the Night Tourbillon dedicated to man’s own private sphere.
Pretty cool, but what if you need to know when it’s time to go on your lunch break? Just knowing it’s “day” isn’t going to cut it.

Timex TX54 for Your Thumbnail


The TX54 is a concept design which featured in the global design competition organized by Timex in collaboration with Core77.

The device is transparent and needs to be kept at the thumbnail or stays clear till the time it is activated. To activate or check time, one can just glance at the time when needed.
