Design submitted by David from UK.
Looking for alternatives to the Twelve 5-9 format, David wanted a system that was simple to read if you know the code, but of course difficult if you don’t.
Time is read by reading the 4 rows from top to bottom, the first 2 are hours and the second 2 are minutes. You square vertical lines so I = 1, II = 4, III = 9. \ means -1 and / means +1. So, \\III should equal to 7 and II// equals to 6.
This watch design should appeal to people who like codes or math. It is a unique way of displaying the time and with practice it’s very easy.

Strange looking display is cool. Nice code you invented there.

2,4,9 +-1 or 2. Wow that’s clever. Takes a bit calculating but yes, after some time it is easy. I wonder, if you can read such displays after one year just by looking at it, without calculating, because you get used to the little images. That would be cool to impress friends
I think this is a more clever display than the predator ones we have in the blog. I looks alien but is is easier. My opinion. Good watch David!

Thanks for the comments. With a little practice you can read it very quickly. It also works with an inverted triangle slotted in between the slashes \\ // instead of the 3 verticle lines. One side lit =1, 2 sides lit = 4 and 3 sides lit =9.

“With a little practice you can read it very quickly”.
This is one of the reasons I love TokyoFlash. Nice job on this design.
uh, 11:27 looks like it’s giving you the finger.

very interesting design. I like it, but it seems a little bit complicated to read the time. i like the case and the strap, looking as a whole concept.

Meh, the Cubic Equation is a lot better as math themed watch.

like the bladerunner/cyber-punk design. might be hard to read, but could learn.

really dig the design: red display on black body – always a winner.
time telling mechanic is easy enough to grasp. probably a bit counterintuitive the first few days, but will become routine after that, i could imagin. definitely going onto my “would buy” list.

too confusing

Wow
I like the strap and the way to read the time! It kind of fit well!

A nice watch design – My only concern is the use of a fourth “row” for hours 11-12. Why not just “III//” for 11? How about the outer most slash is -2/+2, the inner most slash is -1/+1? That way, you can keep the entire time in 3 rows without the extraneous need for a fourth row? Other then that, a nice watch.
