The idea is nice, but I would prefer if the lines/number would be “upright” ( the crossing of lines in the middle should be flat = 4 x 90 degree )

Yeah I remember asymmetry, it was very nice with the hull plating form. There was a fair amount of blue in the comments I recall. Let’s hope TF have more analog ambitions in their list of considerations!

Thanks, Pete! Dendrogram was my highest thus far at 4.3, but my all time fav has to be Asymmetry. Analog has a special place for me.

Hey Keiron, nice that origami still resonates in your mind! ummm a hybrid of the two concepts would be very interesting! Glad to see this one doing well Cory, your due a good score!

I like Interzone too, you could even go with something like

1nterzONE

hmmmmmm…

Here are some ideas:
Intersect
Interplay
Interzone

I like the name “Interzone”.

The band is almost a spitting image of the 3D-Unlimited. Funky!

Really like the simple linear joined up display, it looks really very cool and original, and renderings look amazingly lifelike as always (inspiring to not give up on blender My only quibble is that the strap looks a bit chunky but then if it came in white I would probably but one.

I just realised I missed commenting on Pete & Sam’s Oragami watch :/ I think that a combination of the two concepts would be awesome

Thanks all!

@Jordan: I had a hunch that this design might not be for everyone at the outset, thanks for the vote and input, though.

@Firdaus: An abstract laser array or technical drawing of some sort was at the forefront of my mind for this. Similar wave lengths, I guess

@dzign555: Initially, I thought “Squares, square watch design, the digits take a route through the lattice of squares. Route sounds like root, boom! square root.” The play on words seemed interesting, but may in fact be misleading. Duly noted, perhaps the name could be better ;p

Thanks again for the votes and comments folks

I like the geometry.
5 * / Yes.

Oh…don’t call it square root!

Easy to read, nice, elegant design, techy without being overly geeky. This is a winner with me. Just the slightest of concerns – I don’t think it’s a good idea to leave your watch on the bathroom floor. 5*/ y

Cheers.

This one may look a little understated but still works for me 5/Y

This is for me. Very simple but quite appealing. Like thin piles used at construction site, or perhaps random laser array, the artistic element quite strong on this one. Its voted 5*

Sorry but this ones not for me The face is too plain and reminds me of an etch-a-sketch. It’s simple though and I’m sure it has mass appeal so 5* from me.
