I like the principle used on this design but not nessesarily the look. Having the seconds makes the display more animated but harder and less clear to read. If this was my design Id be tempted to make the polygon forms a solid block (filled in) for better contrast with the negative display. Good idea so 5/Y
best of luck!

Hi Heather,
The digits are clever, and it is a good idea having the seconds too. I do think that it would be easy to read hours and minutes in that format, but I think with 3 rows of digits, you might find some people would find it difficult to read quickly. Samukun has a point, mabe if you included a small v (or some other) shape between the digits to delineate them, people may find it easier to read.

Diane.

Hi Toast! I think, the page is closed in some countries. Try to contact Tokyoflash via email: watches[at]tokyoflash.com

I hope this helps

Fight n-gon fight!

I like the idea Heather. I can see, why it’s daunting at the first moment, since I’m struggling with a similar idea. But with some practice, it works – as always. Maybe a horizontal separator with hh,mm and ss would ease up reading. I don’t mean an interrupting line, but maybe just some space between the numbers, going vertical for a bit before the next number comes. The look is interesting and definitely should make people wonder where’s the time. Big plus are the seconds, that let you learn the numbers. Watch design can come from Tokyoflash Supportive 5*/YES

I’ve been following this site for a while but i have never been able to figure out why it always shows up as ‘closed’ on my browser. The watches are amazing and I’d like to buy some for my friends and family. Anyone able to provide an answer?

I truly can’t read the time on this. Maybe I am not that smart. Hahaha

i like the time telling, and its rly good,
but you could spend more time on the rest of the watch since its important 2!
so work on the overall design not just the time telling.

I don’t really understand why this has gotten such a slamming in the ratings. Sure, the design-brief was done in msPaint but it’s a marvellous concept.
