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.

  5. This is brilliant! I would buy it 9 times. Hopefully, if it gets produced, it’ll come out just in time for Tron: Legacy.

  9. I think this is one of the best Tokyoflash concepts I’ve ever seen. It has a very beautiful minimalist design. My jaw dropped once I saw a picture of this and I said that I must have this. This couldn’t have come out at a better time,just in time for thesequel which I’mreally looking forward to. Enough talk about concepts,if it were out I would buy this RIGHT NOW!

    on a side note, actually a question, would you be able to change the color or would I have to buy all three which I would!

I dont ware watches i hate them in general but OMG im totally converted, i want this so freeking bad. just please dont screw this up with cheep and nasty, poor lighting and options, ie option to have watch light on button press or constant for when in the nightclub. pref colour changing abilities.

    if this ends up just been a poor lit watch with plastic spinning cover i will loose all hope in life. this has to be done and has to be done well

      Give me that watch!
      Waiting every day for the voting to end, and I’ll be able to sign up for the first blue watch!
      And please keep it as in the design, no am/pm showing in the watch, just min and hours, ok the constant sec ring sounds cool… And the watch must be wide :D!
      Loads of love (for that watch!) from Denmark 🙂

      • You two have the right idea. No am/pm, seconds ring (or dot) would be great. And nice and wide, more like a wristband than a watch. And no cheap stuff. Ideally, make it out of metal and glass, with high quality LED/EL. I also hate wearing watches, but I will wear them for this watch!

  19. This is amazing. I haven’t worn a watch in more years than I can count, but I would wear this. I don’t feel the need for a seconds indicator like some do, and in fact quite like the design nice and minimalist like it is. I do very much agree that if technically possible, it should be color-selectable so that you only have one model to sell and the buyer can then choose the color they want. I also think it should have a selectable option to either stay on or be lit for a few seconds at a touch. I would like it on all the time, I just hope that battery life would be practical (and make it rechargable, please!), but others might not. Building in these options into the same unit would maximize sales without making too many variant models.

    Ideally, battery life should be 48hrs+ between recharges, and have color selectable and choice of constant on or touch/press to light. Even better would be colorshifting modes where the watch shifts between colors in either a blink color to color or a slow fade from shade to shade, the way color-changing LED lightbulbs do.

    This thing is made of win.

  20. I would definitely buy one, maybe even two (make a lady’s size watch so we can have matching sets). One VERY important thing to keep in mind when you get this watch made; do NOT make it a cheapo watch. Too many watches look cool but are made with crappy materials that reduce the look and feel to something plastic that you’d buy at a bargain-basement liquidator. I’d be much more willing to pay more for something of quality than something that looks/feels like it was designed for a child. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. 😉

    Your design is AWESOME, I’ll be watching for its release and be one of the first to order!

  22. Hm. One thing I just thought of. These look like they should have a clasp like the C-Prime bracelets, but that doesn’t leave much room for adjustments. Would these be made in different sizes for different wrists?

  28. I would start wearing a watch again if this concept made it all the way to a production model on sale.
    I wonder what it would look like when unlit (in a battery saving mode) though?
    Perhaps an e-ink panel and it’s distinctive ‘refresh flash/blink’ would fit with the TRON-style well, and I imagine would save battery too!
    Really love this design, would buy in an instant, please make Scotts design into reality 😀

  31. I haven’t worn a watch in a long time, but this design is absolutely amazing! I would certainly wear this watch if it was made. +1 from me too 🙂

  32. The wrist band could be made out of a clear hard material with LED strips inlaid. Depending on price point desired, poly carbonate wrist claps material would have top be used. A flexible solution would be desirable so you would not have to send your wrist measurements in with an order. As always, there is a trade-off between durability and comfort…

    • That’s what I’m worried about. I have small wrists, so I have to get most watches resized. In this case, I would rather have to send in measurements and make sure it was the right size than not be able to wear it.

  33. I would like if there was a button that lighted up the space between the two rings with the exact time in a
    digital-styled way so you could see the exact time whenever you needed to, keeping in the tron fashion but also making it more functional when needed.

  45. This idea may have been mentioned already but instead of a 3rd ring, why not just a tiny dot that blinks to show seconds? That way you`re not changing the original concept of copying the design on the discs from the movie but still have ppl know the seconds passed. I guess it could be either just one dot, or have 5/6 dots that represent the seconds sections by 10s…. like 20secs that passed would be shown on the watch by 2 glowing dots. Awesome watch design tho!!!!!!

  46. I heard you like watches so you put the watch in a watch so we could*I am going to let you finish, but…..

    I would personally just stare at the watch and pretend someone is trapped in the middle and when the openings aligned yell “FREEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDOOOOOOMMM!”

    Does it come with a invert button? Have entire watch glow while rings don’t?
