Comments on: Orbits e-paper watch graphs time in 3 dimensions. http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2012/11/orbits-e-paper-watch-graphs-time-in-3-dimensions/ Tokyoflash Design Studio Blog Fri, 24 May 2013 18:41:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Makkovik http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2012/11/orbits-e-paper-watch-graphs-time-in-3-dimensions/#comment-28973 Makkovik Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:01:12 +0000 http://www.tokyoflash.com/blog/index.php?p=17693#comment-28973 I like the overall look & the time-telling simplicity. At first, I thought that it was a 12-5-9. ( which would also be nice ) I like the updated pic with more scale markers. ( I like that the 5 min markers are at every 2nd and not every 3rd, like the hour, which help differentiate both ) In the beginning, I thought that it would be better to have the minutes lines swapped but I realized that it's going clockwise ( vs left-to-right reading ). Now I'm not sure which one is better. I like the overall look & the time-telling simplicity. At first, I thought that it was a 12-5-9.

Just some sooner than others. :S Anyway, I think this blog could be used too to get inspired. You can take this idea and improve it, add more or better features... I do that when I draw, take someone's style and add to it things of my own style. Thanks for the comment, xian! :) Great minds thinks alike.

The reviewed design is really good, much more intuative than the original. As you say "...until you see it posted don't see the mistakes or obvious...", I should (of course) have wrote "marker every 10th minute", but you did the right thing and made your own conclusion from my suggestion. Correct thinking! Keep upp the good work. The devil is in the details…

I guess LCD shall be too many fragments, pieces... so e-ink/paper should be the best option.

About point 2, agreed with every 3rd hour, but would it not be better every 10 minutes? It's easier to count from 10 to 10 that from 15 to 15, isn't? Here I leave you a design review. I would appreciate Tokyoflash team consider it as a possible improvement in the design. http://www.imgjoe.com/x/revision0845.png I modified the scoring for the number 0, uniting the three markers in one with circular shape. In the picture therefore would be 8:45 Thanks for the vote! :D This is one of those cases that until you see it posted don’t see the mistakes or obvious.

I think this is my best design so far (I'm getting better I guess). I would further argue that if it's not you who makes it real, I would seek a way to make one myself, for myself. Hope this design has a better ending. Thanks for adding it to the blog! :D Glad to see you like it, TokyoFlash team.

I can see your logic with the clockwise thing and respect you sticking to your guns! ;) The other way around seems more intuative to me but its a subjective thingy.

Glad to see you over here. About the 10 and unit mins, I think this is the best option because it's similar to the direction of clockwise, as "a natural move", don't know if you understand what I wanna say. Thanks so much! :D Hi Pete! Glad to see you over here.
