Watch or Cellphone: Which Do You Use To Tell The time?

Reuters has a piece on the seemingly more common practice of using a cellphone instead of a watch to tell the time. The thought process is, you have to carry your cellphone anyway, and it tells time, so why carry an extra phone? The proliferation of cell phones, with their list of extra features, has…

Bluevoice, the Combination Watch and Bluetooth Headset

Two devices that never really needed to be combined have been with the Bluevoice, a combination Bluetooth headset and watch. Due to be released in November (but heavy promotion begins in 2007), the Bluevoice solves the problem of “feel[ing] like a cyborg with a [B]luetooth headset in your ear all day.” Yeah, now you just…

EleeNo Bingo Watch: Tells You the Approximate Time

The EleeNo Bingo Watch has a series of tiny round windows laid out in a grid similar to a bingo game, where the outer dots show you the hours and the inner ones display the minutes. The only problem with that? There are just four minute indicators, forcing you to tell time in 15-minute increments.…

Aigo F029 Watch All-in-One Media Player

This is the F029 watch from Aigo. It is a little different from the average MP3 playing watch out there because it has a full color OLED screen. It plays MP3 and WMA and it can even play MPEG-4 video on the 160×128 pixel screen. Included will be 512MB or 1GB of memory and, oh…

Tokyo Flash Pimp Jive Turkey

No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you, this watch from Tokyo Flash is actually called the Pimp Jive Turkey. The positive note is that Tokyo Flash seems to be making watches that actually look like watches.

Lexon E8 Watch: Reinvented Time

Lexon is a European design company who has invented a new way to tell time, according to their e-mail. This watch—rather than having silly hands or digital numbers—uses simple blocks to designate the time. So in this pictured watch it is 12:59. Just count the blocks and you will get it. Design-wise, this watch looks…

Movado 800 Watch Unveiled

I’ve never really been much of a watch man, but on occasion I stumble across a watch that gets me all hot and bothered. The Movado 800 has done that. Hell, I’m not even sure about the specifics of the watch, but it looks so beautiful that I don’t care. It is available with a…

Rikaline GPS-50: Dawning of the Commonplace GPS?

The Rikaline GPS-50 gives you a lot of cool stuff packed into one watch. It has a SiRF Star III GPS receiver, and includes a tracking log and the ability to measure temperature as well as altitude. A woeful weakness is its puny 8MB of flash memory, only capable of holding 600 points. Plus, it…

Man’s eternal quest to fit every device possible onto his wrist continues with the Triple Watch Cellphone. It’s currently just a prototype, but its designer, Manon Maneenawa probably wouldn’t mind it going into production.

Linde Werdelin Watch Hands-On

Got a chance to fondle the Linde Werdelin Biformeter and I have a much better idea of what’s up now. Essentially, this is a really fancy watch with a strange attachment that covers the mechanical part and adds a number of digital functions. The wristwatch itself costs about $4,000 for a steel model and the…

Linde Werdelin Biformeter

I’m meeting with these guys next week but I thought I’d give you all a little sneak peek. I don’t quite know what’s going on here, but somehow this watch is attached to a tiny computer that measures a number of environmental conditions. The detachable part has a thermometer, pulse meter, chronometer, compass, barometer, and…

H.R.T. Sniper Watch

I stopped sniping years ago. It was a childhood phase: taking to a tree, lining up the shot, and taking out the Toys ‘R’ Us sign at 1000 yards. But what of those of us that never outgrew our sniping days? Is there a watch for those people? Sure there is. It’s the H.R.T. Sniper.…
