(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: This is Discus, a back-to-basics disc style analogue watch. The styling is influenced by retro sci-fi as well as more modern sci-fi films. I wanted to design a disc analogue watch that was in theory easy to make but still looked exciting.
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: I have submitted a few analogue designs in the past and most were perhaps a little too imaginative. They tended to be technically un-feasible and required expensive bespoke mechanisms to allow them to work. For this concept I decided to go back to basics and use a traditional disc style analogue time telling using similar construction to “Uzumaki”
(English) Design submitted by Clarence-Junius from the USA.
Clarence-Junius says: As an artist I use the color wheel a lot which inspired me to use that as a theme for this design. The vivid hues of a color wheel would look great as a time piece.
(English) Design submitted by Ignacio from Spain.
Ignacio says: This is a redesign of my first idea published on tokyoflash blog, Ronu. I always loved my first idea, but in 2011 (the year I designed it), I had no idea of 3D, as you can see. It’s some ugly the design I did, isn’t?
That’s why I redesign it, trying to do the best I know to date, trying to refresh it, to upgrade it.

Peter says: This is “Mesh” a back to basics disc type analogue watch.
The inspiration for this concept is the old “mysteron” UFOs from the “Captain Scarlett” animated tv show from yesteryear. The UFO spun as it flew and had a metallic wire frame look to it which really caught the light. I have tried to get a similar feel without being too literal.
(English) Design submitted by Marko from Serbia.
Marko says: I was inspired by planet Saturn. Unlike traditional analog watch, Saturn watch displays only the digits to represent the time while the rests remain concealed under the disk.

Peter says: This is “Turbofan” a remake of an earlier design called “Fan”.
The face of the watch is inspired by the blades of a fan. This inspiration makes for a technical looking dial that kind of looks like armour plating that constantly animates with the movement of the hands.
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
This watch design is a fairly conventional analogue disc watch with a more 3D look. Read the rest of this entry »

Kisai Uzumaki is the sixth fan-submitted concept to become reality from the Tokyoflash Design Studio Blog. The conceptual idea for Kisai Uzumaki was submitted in February 2011 by a reader of the blog and fan of Tokyoflash, Firdaus Rohman from Malaysia. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: “This is “CC” which stands for “Concentric Chronograph”. I wanted to come up with a watch with multiple displays which are concentric around each other, rather than the traditional two or three small displays mounted on one large display. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: “This is “Scroll” and as the name suggests this design was inspired by the form of ye olde worlde rolled up parchment. The basic form consists of two round dials with scroll like discs for hands.
(English) Design submitted by Logan from the USA.
Logan says: Chromodynamics is my most beautiful watch design to date. My goal was to display the time with a complex arrangement of colors.
(English) Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: Analog watches might be traditional, but they can look so cool. I liked what I did with an earlier design called Cypher. I continued playing around with circle based shapes for an analog watch. The result is Cypher’s Little Brother. Read the rest of this entry »
