Tron-inspired LED Watch

Posted on by

Design submitted by Scott from UK.

This concept was voted as one of the most popular designs by fans on the blog and thanks to your votes has become reality and is now available to buy here exclusively at Tokyoflash Japan.

This watch design takes its inspiration from one of Scott’s favorite films as a kid, TRON, and from his Pimp Pimpin Ain’t Easy watch.  He wants something that will get noticed when it lights up and that’s why he came up with an electroluminescence strip around the whole watch strap.

The two rings (styled on a Tron Disc) represent minutes (outer) and hours (inner).  The break in the ring represents the time in a normal clock face layout.

The electroluminescence strip and LED watch face makes the whole watch light up and will definitely stand out from other watches.

  4. Seriously…produce this during the film run and you will start a movement. And make SOOOO much scratch.
    Green and Grey Please!
    i’d like to pay under $200 (being that it’s LED)
    but would easily pay over $100

  6. I would LOVE this watch! If you make it, please include a women’s size as well; so many interesting watches only come sized for men.

  8. Depending on the price, I’d definitely buy one of these. It’s beautiful. So minimal. So focused. And I immediately figured out how to tell the time with it.

  15. It’s so obvious that the designer is posting all these same comments, trying to make his design look popular. Hope Tokyoflash is on this? Nice design, but not that nice.

  21. Besides that the actual reading looks a bit wrong, as we always come at a time device with an hour/minute scheme, not the opposite so the outer circle should be hours and inner minutes. So beside this, I like very much the graphic aspect of this watch.

    • Well on a “normal” analog watch, the shortest “hand” is the hour hand which takes an inner circular path. The minute hand and second hand extends further than the hour hand which takes an outer path. The break in between in the lines represents the time with the inner circle being the shortest distance ergo represents the hour. The same holds true for the minute hand.

  26. I definitely plan on buying it if it goes out for sale.
    Hopefully they just do not just sell the watch in single colors though.
    Instead, have an option on the watch to change the led color.
    Either way. I’d still buy it.

  38. This watch needs to be made… The mere mention of the watch has led me to the tokyoflash site, and I’m now drooling to obtain other upcoming watches as well.

  44. While I would buy this in blue if it were single color, this would be perfect if there was a button on the watch to change the color of the lights. Also the ideas for the seconds are great. I would really like to be able to see the seconds. Smooth movement, as opposed to the normal ‘ticking’ movement, is also a must. I haven’t worn a watch in years, but I would go back to wearing watches for this one.

  46. This watch is awesome! I love my watches to stand out from the boring rolex analog crowd. And this is perfect until e-ink/colour LCD starts to break through! I’ve got light pipes on my roccat kone gaming mouse. so cant imagine the light pipes on the strap would be too hard to make multi coloured. Its the battery life that would be scared!

    So i think always on as a default to be flashy!! And a switch to turn the light off. With some sort of usb charger/awesome dock for it to sleep on at night!
