Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: There is this wrist surrounding line (ito in japanese) which adapts in the case region to show the four digits of the time display. The line itself can always be seen completely, but it is not illuminated.
In the case region the line is translucent and lights up when a button is pressed thanks to subjacent LEDs. Next to this part of the line are trapezoid and rhomboid shaped LEDs. They also light up as well and tell you the time.
The different LEDs form futuristic numbers and partially let the line seem to be thicker, to keep the illusion, the line is adapting to tell the time.
There is also a smooth gradient between the unlit part of the line and the lit one to keep this illusion. The line is “drawn” on a black background and all is framed by chrome. This graphical element continues in the segmented strap and the clasp.
This watch covers a wide range of people. So anyone who likes modern arts and science fiction might be a fan of it.
Itozero is a watch with a unique and clear appearance. It uses simple elements to create a futuristic illusion.
I love this one ^ ^

Tehehe, any luck is highly appreciated. Actually this concept is older than the ONLINE one;) It’s an attempt to revive my ITO idea in a feasable appearance. The ONLINE was another attempt, using more width of the display. Here it’s more subtle and “quiet”… until you press the button haha. Thanks alot for the comment Pete!

I figured it was a more realistic (from a technical persepective) version of ITO (another cool concept obviously) but assumed that it was more recent than online (vewry interesting) just goes to show age makes no difference to cool design! 😀

Hey,

Aww Paul, I have to disappoint you here. Each watch gets a limited time for voting, so Tokfoslah can evaluate everything afterwards. If a watch gets made is held top secret until the watch comes out due to media strategies and possible copycats. And even if we knew it, it’s a long way from concept to reality. It’s a hard time now and all I can do is hoping too. Thank you for your interest and your support sir!

I have a small wrist too and I know your fear. I own a KISAI ONLINE. It is 1.4cm thick (in the middle). I thought that is was pretty big for me, but the shape of the case is well integrated in the whole watch so it looks less chunky than expected. Thinner would always be welcome 😉

Salut Demo! Pas de problème, je respond avec mon francais très limité hehe. Je ne peut pas dire ca. Tokyoflash ont leurs propres pensées.

Thank you very much TFD. Actually for time telling, watches aren’t really needed anymore. If you re-discover them from a fashion and design perspective, that’s just great cause that’s how the concepts on here were meant. I’m glad you like this one and I hope you can wear it one day.

I love it. If I had to choose my first watch, this should be the one ! Keep me one aside 😉
By the way, did you think some options ? Like an alarm set or a calendar ? Or a connection with your cellphone, and a LED signal someone calling you ? … I think I’m going too far ^^ But reading time is good enough.
5 ★, Tokyoflash, you have to produce Ito Zero LED ! Cant wait to get it.

Hello Marc, that’s a nice comment!
You’re not going too far here 😉 Oh I’m open for alarm and date function. When Tokyoflash made my ONLINE concept real, they added an alarm function and cool animation and the accelerometer freature. So the customer baiting look is just the start. I think reading time is good enough but adding a feature that keeps you busy for a longer time, is great.

The idea and the display are nice. ( larger digits would be better ) The look of the band is not. There is a problem with the button position : it feel kinda hard to reach, which is important for an LED.

Naw Makk, you press it and your finger gets a li’l squeezed by the edge, that’s it 😉 I liked to hide the button a bit to not have a knob setting the look in imbalance. But cool that you like the numbers: that’s where the concept started. Nice starting point for a real watch too 😀 Thanks for the insight!
