Design submitted by Pawel from Germany.
Pawel says: The quad watch was my first submission to the blog. Surprised by the positive feedback of the community I decided to develop the idea further creating quad². The objective was to design a minimalistic display that shows time in a un-obvious fashion but is easy to read if you know how. (original concept here)
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.

Andrew says: “The following LCD watch concept uses an analogue display based on a Pie Chart to display the portion / percentage of time that has elapsed. Read the rest of this entry »
Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
My idea is an LCD display, that reacts to light, like a human eye does. To express this idea, I let myself inspire by HAL 9000, the ship’s computer in Stanley Kubrick’s motion picture 2001: a space odyssey. Read the rest of this entry »
Design submitted by Sarah from the UK.
Sarah says, “I came up with this watch design when randomly when opening a security lock at work. I was thinking… wow, wouldn’t it be awesome if a watch did that too? Read the rest of this entry »
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.
Design submitted by Fabio from Brazil.
Fabio Says: Minimalistic dial, based on radars. No buttons. Three concentric rings, each representing conventional clock hands. No buttons (the watch has to be minimalistic). The central ring represents the second hand and its movement attracts attention.
Design submitted by Erik from Colombia.
Erik says: I was trying to keep the clock as simple as possible,so i started designing a segmented clock, first displaying numbers and then using shapes till i came up with this concept.
Design submitted by Eivind from Norway.
Eivind says: I got my inspiration from classic science fiction, like 2001: A Space Odyssey and games like Mass effect and Deus EX. I liked the minimalistic design of the equipment and different tools. The style is simple, but it stands out. I also got inspiration from the popular products on the market today, like an iPhone or a pair of beats by Dr.Dre headphones.
Design submitted by Djordje from Serbia.
Djordje says: Motivation of time, I wanted to achieve the effect of ease of watching at time, to understand better their own time.
Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam Says: Xtal is the result of some small sketches I made when having lunch. When I looked back at the paper, I liked the initial mystery of the numbers, the simple geometry of the watch and the general edginess of everything.
Design submitted by Yoshi from Japan.
Yoshi says: This is my e-paper watch design called “Trinity”. I chose e-paper for this design because I wanted to create something you can wrap around your wrist with a bold design.
Design submitted by Devindh from the UK.
Devindh says: I called this design ‘Ebi’ because the eventual design reminded me of a lobster. The idea stemmed from my exploration of e-paper. I wanted to incorporate laser cut pieces of e-paper into a design, as this display technology lends itself to custom shapes.
Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: My idea for UNION was to unify all digits of the time display, that are the same, to save numbers and to create an interesting look. For example a 22 would become a big 2. This is where the fun started.
Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
I always liked neon tube displays in sci-fi movies. Back then, when CGI wasn’t used for every little thing. I liked the fact, someone actually built alien symbols of neon tubes, that really work! I was sketching for minimalistic, square based numbers that make a cool neon tube display.
