November 14th, 2012
Design submitted by Pawel from Germany.

November 13th, 2012
Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: I spent some time with Origami and I like the idea of creating so many different things with one sheet of paper. I took a square one and folded me some abstract numbers. I also like mirror LCD and used this to express these numbers for my watch concept.

Decaminute watch turns your day decimal.
November 8th, 2012
Design submitted by Logan from the USA.
Logan says: I interpreted Tokyoflash’s slogan, “change the way you think about time,” as a design challenge: create a watch that will convince a traditionalist that there are advantages to thinking differently about time.
Concave LED watch with ripple effect
November 7th, 2012
Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: I came up with the idea for Concave when I thought about making circular digits, one behind the other. In order to accomplish this, although the display is flat, I imagined each digit to be a curved surface, like a contact lens, for example. By placing the digits one behind the other, and increasing size, we can see these concentric circular digits, each whose center segment is being partially blocked by the digit in front of it.

November 6th, 2012
Design submitted by Devindh from the UK.

Bermuda LED watch has all the answers
November 5th, 2012
Design submitted by Colby from South Africa.
Colby says: With inspiration from the intrigue of The Bermuda Triangle and crop circles, coupled with the classic feel of 1960-1980′s sci-fi movies, the ‘Bermuda’ was born. My underlying principle was to use an unconventional watch shape, and include a one-of-a-kind function.
Orbits e-paper watch graphs time in 3 dimensions.
November 2nd, 2012
Design submitted by Ignacio from Spain.
Ignacio says: I love drawing. One day, making circles with compass, I decided to design a watch where joining 3 points (time) drew a circle. And so did this design.
I considered doing another 2 designs, which would be a square and a triangle, with the same functioning.
K-sec LCD watch for star travellers
November 1st, 2012
Design submitted by Cory from the USA.
Cory says: There are no seasons on a starship. No weeks, months, or years. The minute becomes meaningless, since there are 60 of those in an ‘hour’ and 24 of those in a ‘day.’ Star faring humans long ago began using the Kilosecond. Metric time, for when the rotation of a distant homeworld no longer holds any bearing.

Orbital Decay watch uses single ‘hand’ to show hours & minutes
October 29th, 2012
Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: I was trying to think of a very simple and intuitive way of showing the time with essential a digital “one handed analogue” type of time telling format. The easiest way it seemed to do this is to have a hand moving in two directions, rotationally for one part of the time telling and towards and away from the pivot for the other. I soon realised after looking at one of my older designs “Tri-Ripple” that the most intuitive way of doing this is an expanding orbit around the pivot point. Like a satellite slowly moving slowly away from the object its orbiting.
