Design submitted by Olivier from France.
Olivier says: “I used to lose my USB key often so I came up with the idea to attach the USB key to my watch. Basically, the features are identical as the Escape C watch (skype, MP3 and Bluetooth) with the possibility to use bluetooth headphones and the USB key to store music or any computer data.
I wanted a very futuristic design like you could find in the next big Sci-Fi movie. Have a look at the images below to see how the time can be read. I think this watch design would be ideal for geeks, Sci-fi fan, modern people in general. The shape is unusual and I think it would be the first USB key watch.”





Love the design and idea, would definitely buy, just one question: The Escape C has to play music via bluetooth, will this be able to play music from the USB key?

very interesting design.
I like the ideea, but I don’t like the strap. Is too feminine. The strap should be wider (with 3 circles maybe connected at every 3 centimetters).
The USB sould be very big. I would like to have this watch with at least 128 GB

Or the option of trading out or buying new drives would be nice as well

Very cool design! I love the fact of being able to play mp3 from the usb stick via bluetooth headphones. 8gb would totally suffice. Why? You can change the music easily so no big amount needed. And you don’t see your tracks anyway. How you handle 10000 tracks without seeing them? Shuffle…tehehe. Making the strap wider wouldn’t be a hard task. I’d like to have it too. The time telling display is pretty nice. But I would have put the 12h LED to the where the 9h LED is now – more intuitive time reading. The style of the aluminium (?) and black plastic is great, the mix of hard edges and rounded shapes appeal to me. And the realistic look is very convincing. Top!

AWESOME, the only bad that i see would be the price, lol. Good shapes, maybe the strao a bit wider. Also maybe the next track and previous track buttuns, could be just one, because in smaller wrists that watch might seem huge, as well as making the + and – buttons also smaller. Very good idea, and as Sheldon Cooper said: Everything must have bluetooth. 😀

Hi guys,
Thanks for your comments, I’m finishing the Konect watch’s video, stay tuned, I will post the link in this forum.
@aswed
yes the concept is you plug ths USB key in your computer and then get back the data in the watch
@ Gabriel B-B
I could consider a wider strap for men and keep this one for women:)
@ Samukun
I should have mentionned that Konect is able to talk like the Ipod Shuffle, so you can manage all the songs you need;)

Really cool design. The only question yet i haven’t found an answer to – where do you put the ear fastener for your bluetooth headset?
and what about spare parts – like spare flash drive and/or spare bluetooth/mp3-player module? like, when i’ve lost my one or my dog ate it – should be nice to be able to buy the component separately 🙂
Overall nice idea, would buy as soon as my income allows me 😀

well, the bluetooth headset is nothing new, it’s like many others on the market, so you use it in the same way.

The only problem I can see with this design, as shown, is that it would only work for those who wear watches on their left arm. For those, like me, who wear it on their right arm, it wouldn’t really work. Unless there’s a way to flip things around.
That aside, interesting design.

Well, it would be very easy to make an option to flip the way you read the LEDs as the watch is symmetrical 🙂

Awesome design and idea, looks very techy
One question though, Power?, I am assuming battery, maybe rechargeable, but your design doesn’t look like it leaves a lot of room for batteries, just wondering how much use you would actually get out of this if you were using it to play mp3’s and took a few calls during the day?
also for the calls you would need to tether the watch to your phone AND to the earpieces, that is a pretty big power drain right there just from the bluetooth alone
not trying to put your design down, i love the design, just wondering if this had been thought about
definite WANT though

The watch looks nice, no doubt, but it looks too much like a communication gadget than like a wrist watch. The case is too small for me and the straps too narrow. And the last point: I don’t need another music player on my wrist. Besides my own taste, I think this could be a seller.
Seems, that advertising this watch elsewhere pulls many new people into the blog. How about you guys look at the other concepts too? This blog could use some fresh eyes 😉
