A solid appearance is achieved. A military theme is the first thing that comes to my mind. I think the handband really looks like the tracks of military tanks. I think a digital como. handband and a "night vision goggle green" LEDs will also be nice for people who likes the "high tech. military theme". Size factor is also a concern to me baceuse I have small wrist. Finally, I think something can be done to make this watch to be easier to read. For example, change the LEDs for the hour groups to look like numbers; I say this because I noticed the last LED in the single minute group really looks like "5". First of all, I love this design.

The yellow shapes seem a bit random and would be better if they were a repeating pattern, maybe a bit more like Jlr7? /_ _/ /_ _/ /_ Nice concept but needs some work with the way the time is displayed.

I like the the slightly recessed face. I like the LED shapes and I agree with other comments that some animation may be nice. The numbers may be necessary for readability. However, rather than printing them on the case, they could remain in the current shown position and instead light up when the button is pressed to show the time. So numbers and LED shapes would appear together. This would result in the numbers not being visible when the LEDs switch off. Perhaps also use different colours for different parts of the time, e.g. red for hours, yellow for minutes etc. I would also include a day and date feature. I think this is a brilliant design.

I think the yellowish color for the LED's provides a stark contrast to the case and band, as well as being unique to the lineup in that we haven't seen yellow before as a main color. I agree with one of the previous posts about taking off the numbers. They're distracting from the overall design when the LED's aren't active. Have animations been thought of at all? I think an obvious animation would be the LED's illuminating in alternate row succession down the length of the interface to simulate tire treads moving. Keep up the good work!!

Personally I m not much into the rugged tire led display and the yellow - something more subtle, less obscure or flow type shapes are closer to my taste. If you keep the rugged tire, you may go for some 'military' color options (dark green leds, or dark green casing/strap with with lighter green leds). Anyway, one of my favorites among the new designs! Great design no question.

I wouldnt buy it because it doesnt look easy to tell the time, and I hate the yellow. You should put multiple LED colors into more of your watches. I love the casing-flat on top, very sleak.
