Fossil Stops SPOT

This is not all that surprising, really, but it’s pretty big. Fossil, one of the largest watch distributors in the US, has taken SPOT watches out of their upcoming pipeline as a reaction to Microsoft’s decision to pull back on new SPOT developments and totally re-tool lots of the features. Since they were originally introduced,…

Beastly Japanese Phone Watch

You’ve really got to hate yourself to strap this thing on. It’s a watch that reads out the time when you dial 117 which is the number to the Japanese time and weather service, we’re led to believe. This huge monster of a thing might be fun at parties for the first few minutes, but…

LACO “Marine Uhr” 861216 – That’s Some Watch

Was just watch browsing/drooling when I stumbled upon these beauties. Nothing too high-tech, but in terms of watch design they’re just about perfect. These use a standard, automatic ETA movement in a nice 46mm steel case. They’re priced at about $1000, so maybe I need to go sell a kidney. I like this steel on…

The Timex Ironman OVA

No, this isn’t a new fertility treatment. It’s a watch that you wear sideways on your wrist (OVA=Optimal Viewing Angle). That way you can see the time just by looking down at your hand at your side or in front of you instead of twisting your entire arm. Important breakthrough in timekeeping technology? Heck, no.…

See SPOT Supply RSS Feeds

Make Magazine has a detailed—and we mean detailed—HOW-TO on how to get RSS feeds sent to your SPOT watch. I dig SPOT but I think it’s gone stagnant recently. This little hack, however, perks up my flagging SPOT-love slightly. Most of the HOW-TO involves downloading a bunch of software but the fact that you can…

Old School LED Watch – Now in Gunmetal

I loved LED watches. They’re so James Bond circa 1975 when he’s trying to disable that bomb and the countdown appears in a little window looking like some squiggly weird clockwork thing even though it’s really electronic. You can find similar watches on eBay, but they’re usually busted-up gold or busted-up chrome. However, one lad…

Nike Hammer Watch

Please, Hammer, don’t hurt ’em. Sorry. I just wanted to use that line. This thing can’t actually hurt you unless you tighten it to much. Nothing terribly special about this sport watch. It looks very beefy and cool and is water resistant to 50 meters and can take all kinds of shocks and blows and…

Asteroids Watch – But I Want to Play!

Fossil is coming out with a line of watches with arcade game themes. This one, inspired by the ultimate in vector graphics, Asteroids, features the hero—a triangle—fighting off the villain and his minions—the squarish blocky things. Remember Asteroids? I think it came out in 1979 and there was a mod you could download via punchcard,…

The Orbit Watch

This looks to be a conceptual/functional (pardon the paradox) implementation of a modern day sundial watch. The brainchild of Designer Gina Reimann, The Orbit allows you to tell the time the way the ancient Greeks did… well, sort of. An integrated compass tells you which way to face, and the sun then casts a shadow,…

Nintendo Watches

I have a Pac Man watch that I loved dearly as a boy. It got me through many long hours and was loud as hell so when you started up a game you woke up the entire chain gang. Anyway, these retro Nintendo wristwatches come in a crystal clear cubes and make me sooooo happy.…

iBeam Watch

So Goldfinger has you strapped to a table and is about to cut your junk with a water saw. What to do? Whip out the iBeam watch to aim the rays of the sun at your bonds, escape at the last moment, and then use the included LED to find your keys to your mini-sub…

G-Unit MP3 Watch

Recording artist and bling connoisseur 50 Cent—aka Puffy— has released a new MP3 Watch through his recording label G-Unit. The watch is available in 256MB and 512MB with prices beginning at $486. Besides the name, nothing makes this MP3 watch any special worth the inflated price tag. I also assure you that Fiddy wouldn’t be…
