Design submitted by Jordan from Canada.
Jordan says: “The simplest eye, such as one found in micro-organisms, does nothing but detect whether the surroundings are light or dark. This eye, however, doesn’t even do that. I wanted an eye-like watch face that was both minimalistic, and visually appealing. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Boris from Russia.
Boris says: “I thought about an easy way to understand what time is it now and wanted to combine this with something like retro style. In this LED watch design, wooden plates indicate the hour, and lights inside open to indicate the minutes passed in the current hour. Colored dots and stripes refers to the time of day, so you can always tell whether it is day, night or evening. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Andy from the Ukraine.
Andy says: “My idea is based on a ribbon bracelet and the shape of women’s fashion jewelry. It also looks like 2 leaves from a tree. The design is in the shape of 2 independent electronic parts – 1 for hours telling and 2 for minutes telling. This design would be ideal for people who love original design, fashion, style and original ways of displaying time.” Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Nemoto san from Japan.
Nemoto san says: “This watch design is a collection of simple shapes, a group of geometric blocks. To understand how to read the time, take a look at the image below. It’s not too dissimilar to an analog clock. It should be pretty straight forward once you get used to it.
(English) Design submitted by Jordan from Canada.

Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: “Two things guided me to make this watch design. The first thing was the idea to make a wrist watch that the wearer can adapt as they please. The second thing was, I thought about why should one use e-paper for a watch? It is just black and white, has no background light and doesn’t look spectacular at all. The big benefit is, it can show anything you want (within the restriction, e-paper has) and the black-white is pretty artistic actually, so it was the perfect display type for my idea. And the word “spectacular” is subjective, you decide how the display on your watch looks! This watch is your canvas… Read the rest of this entry »

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.

(English) 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 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.
