Design submitted by Firdaus from Malaysia.
Firdaus says: “During the Sengoku period, there was a haunted sword that sucks blood of the victim. After the master of the sword passed away, the sword was destined to fall into the hand of a mad scientist who later modified the sword to be a “bleeding blade” watch.
According to the scientist, the watch uses animation guided LEDs to show the time and date. An illustration and example of how to tell the time and date is provided below.
The watch was initially dedicated to a brave warrior with strong determination to be its master. But as the time changes, the watch design can be worn as a fashion item for those who want to look rugged, or creepy – like your wrist has got cut.
In the western area, similar watches with different colored blood were found and paranormal researchers have suggested that the watch could be originally the ancient technology of alien, or it could be inspired by underworld creature or even the spirit?”
Uzumaki: 5/4 This: 5/1. Sorry Firdaus. Too complicated. The Kanji writing too much for me!

yeah it is difficult, but not tricky, once u can read the kanji number (from top) 1-12 then follow the step you will got it. for example above, step 1 (hour=7), step 2 (minute=3x) + step 3 (minute x9) = 7.39. Sorry for the lack of manual, its my mistake did not add another attachment. thanks

Ok readers,
HOW TO TELL THE TIME (see the animation above)
left bleed = 3 x step; step 1= hour, step 2 = minute+, step 3 = +minute from step 2.
the long bleed = from top, 1 to 12.
example above: step 1= hour = 7, step 2 = 3+ minute, + step 3 = +9 minute. Hence, its 7.39.
HOW TO TELL THE DATE
left bleed = 3xstep; step 1 = day+, step 2 = +day, step 3 = month.
long bleed = digit from top 1 -12 in kanji.
example above: step 1 = day = 2+, step 2 = day = +6, step 3 = 12th month. Hence, its 26/12.
when 0, all digit leds on.
The step is only for guidance.

The hour reading system is pretty easy, the same reading system you can find on the Denshoku, but the date is bit complicated, oh hell, who needs the date, every mobile phone in the world is showing you the date, and this thing is more a fashion statement then a practical watch. 5 stars.
