Ah, Brando. The soft “ping” in my inbox that heralds yet another slice of pedestrian weirdness from everyone’s favorite purveyor of odds ‘n’ sods. And today’s offering was no different: a pair of watches from toolmaker Stanley. One sports a 16-position compass, but it’s the other one that got me all excited—a calculator watch with 6″ ruler. Full specs for both after the jump.
