I guess that is Japanese, hope I got this right! Cool! That sounds like fun but we're changing a little bit with the display of the second triangle. But what happens when the same question time and minutes Tamas, here’s the translation of Honda’s comment… I guess that is Japanese, hope I got this right!

I wonder if the vectors could be made for real?? With LCD maybe? Really really good one! I wonder if the vectors could be made for real?? With LCD maybe?

Nice artwork like display. Minimal art. Contains all info to read the time. Very clever! Yes animate it please.

Id like to see this in action on a flash video or something, the animation is really going to be a big part of the effect.

The Hints feature is very nice. My only negative comment would be to place some more time on the style of the wristband and watch face. I also think e-paper is a bad choice for display in this case. This is because originally vector graphics were bright lines illuminated on a dark background. Since your design references that, e-paper would make it appear washed out or watered down in terms of concept. What you are doing here in a way is celebrating vector graphics, so focus on that.

I'm arguing between this one and the DK concept watch. This is awesome, I love it. It's SO simple! Bravo! WOW. I’m arguing between this one and the DK concept watch. This is awesome, I love it.

I liked the design but couldn't understand it, then i suddenly realised its actually quite simple. Very clever design. I didn’t get this at first.

The gyroscopic rotation is very cool, but the horizontal axis of the watch has to be parallel to the line, your eyes lie on. If your hand is higher than your elbow, the watch is turned and therefore the display is turned, no intuitive reading possible (+- 10 minutes). But thats why you made the hints - wise decision ;) The triangle with the different distances is simple looking but contains all the information you need, very good. I submitted something slightly similar to this idea, maybe Tokyo Flash will show it. Well, that's a tokyo-flashy watch in my opinion. Hard to read and strange but stylish looking.
