Laurin says: I had a dream of two waves merging to a centre point. Then I saw each wave flow back to it’s starting point. Read from the Centre Top point MIDNIGHT – colour Silver.

Sam says: The RA is a distant relative of Cypher and CLB – also analog watch concepts. The basic idea this time was using simple things to create a complex looking sci-fi eye candy that’s actually easy to read. I started with a watch turned upside down to have the [...]]]> http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/ra-analog-watch-with-bright-reflective-foil/feed/ 29 http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/insular-led-watch-has-robotic-column-of-lights/ http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/insular-led-watch-has-robotic-column-of-lights/#comments Fri, 14 Jun 2013 00:17:03 +0000 Tokyoflash Japan Product Design Studio http://blog.tokyoflash.com/index.php?p=21251 Design submitted by Peter from the UK. Peter says: I had an image in my head for a semi-organic shaped watch with a narrow LED display. The image had a alien robot kind of look which was industrial but not too aggressive in its language. ”Insular” was the outcome. The design revolves around a narrow vertical LED [...]]]> http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/insular-led-watch-has-robotic-column-of-lights/feed/ 25 http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/vertebrae-if-aliens-wore-watches/ http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/vertebrae-if-aliens-wore-watches/#comments Fri, 14 Jun 2013 00:12:52 +0000 Tokyoflash Japan Product Design Studio http://blog.tokyoflash.com/index.php?p=21227 Design submitted by Peter from the UK. Peter says: Ever since I started submitting designs for the blog I have been trying to think of a nice design based on Armour, Exoskeletons, and Mecha.

Lloyd says: Scuttlebug is a fun LCD concept watch design with an unusual display that contains 2 bug-like creatures which tell you the time and date.

Heather says: I decided to try a new version of Relief that has a rectangular display, rather than square, and perhaps is more feasible and readable that my original creation – RELIEF v2.  I am still using the concept of having a 3D sort of feel to a digit-inside-digit [...]]]> http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/relief-watch-with-textured-display-update/feed/ 7 http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/code-watch-uses-alien-binary-symbols/ http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/06/code-watch-uses-alien-binary-symbols/#comments Tue, 11 Jun 2013 00:30:20 +0000 Tokyoflash Japan Product Design Studio http://blog.tokyoflash.com/index.php?p=21171 Design submitted by Wilhelm from South Africa.
