About the crown... in my opinion it could break the idea of minimalism. Don't you? I'm glad to see you like it :) and thank you very much for the comment.

I like pretty much everything about it. It could go touch screen, or traditional analogue with a crown on the side for setting. Very slick! Very slick, Ignacio!

To be honest Im not sure how to best change the display to make it more unique but keep the ease of reading. If I think of anything I will let you know! :D Maybe its not an issue, most people might not see any simularity anyway.

I design it according to my tastes, so it's probable I can not be able to see a better display. And one of the objectives of this site is that people can give their opinion. According to you, how it would have a better display? How it would be more unique? I really want this kind of criticism. Thank you very much, Pete. ;) Pete comment: Boost moral!! :D

Great! :D To tell you the truth, I have a problem with these watches. Tokyoflash watches I see them as something futuristic, and my problem is that I see as futuristic and minimalist black and white, with shiny and reflective materials, and stylized. Like this design. So I always make my designs with those two colors. The others do not seem very futuristic. And thanks for your comment :) Glad to see you like it :)

The time telling is simple and easy to understand. The time telling method deosn't however feel very unique, it works in the same way as an analogue disc watch only in this case using an electronic display. If you can somehow make the display more unique then Im behind it 100%. Nice work Ignatius 5/Yes I like the minimalistic approach and you have a nice selcection of colour examples.

But I tell them it's only a matter of relearning the system, as we learned the numbers and read the time on a clock when we were young.

I think it's an interesting design. The design also works with many color variation as suggested. Most importantly, relatively easy to tell time and considered in a unique design range. I can see you become regular on this blog. Ignacio-san, a name to remember along with Peter, Anders, etc.... Hrmmm… I think it’s an interesting design.
