Apr 16 2009Faceless Watch Lacks Face, Hides LEDs

The LED watch was designed by Hironao Tsuboi and appears to just be a metal band. But it's actually hiding a deep, dark secret: it once ran over a bum and didn't stop! Or, LEDs. Push a button, BOOM: the time. Don't push the button, BOOM: no time. Push my buttons, BOOM: fisticuffs.
Hit the jump for another picture.
Thanks to Matt and Mastro Gippo, who don't need watches to know it's time to party.

Amazing when numbers are lit up, like a big fat girls bracelet when not. That is a big fat bracelet beloning to a girl.. not a big fat girl who has a bracelet.
It could be both though. You decide.

@7 - It looks like a girls bracelet wehn the LEDs are off. Not that hard to understand, although I may be wrong.

Needs more cowbell.

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake bhecause the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the Movie Never BAck Down where MAx is trying to open an ATM, and tries a saw, a sledgehammer and a torch. LAter it aflls over and the door pops open on its own, apparently it wasn't locked.

@13 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.......I totally agree, Always wanted a Tokyo Flash, but can't spend more than half a second deciphering my watch, that's how auctions are lost.
Now this watch looks cool, and can be read quick, all be it on a 24 hr. scale instead of the US 12hr. Why do we in the states always make things stupid, like 12hr. time, standard instead of metric, Fat instead of thin.....ugg
