Design submitted by Cory from the USA.
Cory says: “Golden Ratio, known also as Phi or Fibonacci proportion, is pervasive throughout nature. φ is the mathematical symbol for it and it forms a beautiful loop called the Golden Spiral. You can see it in everything from tiny sea horses, nautilus shells, ram’s horns, the human face, and even galaxies. It is now also represented in this analog watch design.

Design submitted by Laszlo from Hungary.
The Cactus is an LED watch design, but it has a clever feature. When the lights illuminate to display the time, they point in the direction of the hour, group of 10 minutes and single minute enabling time reading to be that much easier whilst at the same time giving you a truly original and artistic watch design.

Design submitted by Andreas from Germany.
Andreas says: “I wanted time to speak through the shape and surface, so I looked at a grown piece of crystal, the perfect symbol for time, and transformed it into a relief surface of my watch. The time is displayed by three circles of dots from inside to outside; Hours, Minutes, Seconds. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Laszlo from Hungary.
Laszlo says: “This analog watch design displays the time using two screen printed acrylic dials. These dials spin above the numbers. Hours are shown on the left side, minutes on the right side. Both dials are divided into two sections. The hour dial shows 0-6 hours on the outside and 6-12 hours on the inside. The minutes dial works in the same way on the other side.” Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: “I wanted to make a single handed analog watch with 24h display. That’s not brand-new? That’s right. But this watch shows each minute as clear as if it is a traditional analog watch display. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Jordan from Canada.
Jordan says: “With this watch, I wanted to do something I hadn’t done before. I was skimming through the blog, and binary seemed to be the way to go, so here’s my first binary watch… Infinity – A watch to last forever. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Felipe from Brasil.
Felipe says: “I have been thinking about creating a watch design of a based on a soroban for a while now. In this one I try to make the shape simple, looking like a soroban but kind of futuristic and “Tokyoflashy”.

Design submitted by Cory from the USA.
Cory says: “Ninjas attacked me as I was walking to work. I had only my wits to save me. As everyone knows, if there is a lone Ninja, he can fight off an entire army by himself, but if there is a large group of them, they drop like flies. This is the law of the Ninja, I’m not sure why that is, but there you have it. From this encounter came the notion of a watch made of Ninja tools.

Design submitted by Anders from Sweden.
Anders says: “Inspired by a few other sun-dial designs on this blog, I was hit with the idea to make an actual sun-dial watch, but substituting LEDs orbiting the watch face for the sun. Some sketching resulted in this design; Gnomon; two layered faces , a center gnomon and cleverly shuttered LEDs. Read the rest of this entry »

A new concept from the Tokyoflash Design Studio.
This analog watch design is ideal for people who are sick of the society, stupid rules & being told what to do all the time. As a sign of rebellion they can wear this watch and say “F*** No”! Well, not exactly, as there is “No Swearing” allowed of course… Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Laszlo from Hungary.
Laszlo says: “This is an analog watch, with electroluminescent backlighting (yellow or green). The light shining through on two screen-printed acryil dials indicates the time. The fixed hand is printed on the inside of the glass.
The time reading on this watch design is very simple. The dials move in a clockwise direction and the time is always shown in the window at the 12 o’clock position. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Paulo from Portugal.
Paulo says: “I like all kind of watches and I like to blend old with new, so when i saw the type of watches you make, i just put old numbers in the LEDs.
The design is very simple and you just have to know how to read Ancient Roman Numbers to be able to tell the time. This watch design would be great for anyone who likes old and new watches.
This design stands out as something different because although LEDs are usual in Tokyoflash watches, ancient numbers are not, i only see these in some analog watches.”

24/7 Driver is an analog watch design that is quite different to typical analog watch designs. This concept uses discs that rotate like the hands of a normal watch and above these discs are dials through which the time is displayed. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Jordan from Canada.
Jordan says: “Why are watches limited to button activation? Why can’t they be activated a different way? Just as I was wondering that, I walked by a slot machine, and Addiction was born.
