Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: “I was trying to find a way to make new, interesting looking digits, and I came up with the idea of starting with a rectangle, and drawing in some line segments and dots to give the idea of the digits 0-9. I arranged the digits into 4 quadrants, with line segments connecting them, and noticed that making them not go all the way to the edge of the display plays tricks on the eye. Looking at the watch at first, it appears to be some line segments and dots, while in fact, if you read the background instead, it is quite easy to read the time digitally”.

Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: “I like the idea of digital watches that are not obvious at first glance, yet can easily be read. This is a digital watch with an “always on” display and is unisex. The digits are formed by horizontal line segments only, in such a way that the digits are more easily read from far, rather than close up. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Cory from the USA.
Cory says: “Optical illusions are interesting because they manipulate our imperfect perceptions. While browsing through several optical illusion sites, I ran across Pinna’s Intertwining Illusion. Discovered by Baingio Pinna of the University of Sassari in Italy, the circles appear to spiral and intersect, but are in fact an orderly set of concentric circles”. Read the rest of this entry »

Design submitted by Logan from the USA.
This watch design is a continuous-band watch like Tokyoflash Fire or Shinshoku, but the pattern of the holes/LEDs is essentially a binary tree. This makes it easier to read the minutes by comparing to the obvious locations of minutes 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32. Read the rest of this entry »
