Fingerprint e-paper watch exposes digital time.

Design submitted by Sam from Germany & Peter from the UK.

Sam & Peter say: When Pete’s Bio-Metric fingerprint watch concept showed up in the blog, I was like nooooooooo because I had some display tests ready by then – great minds think alike! No other fingerprint concept has been made since then (2011!) so I took my drafts and showed them to Pete. I thought, if there is a new fingerprint watch concept, he should be involved. Pete said yes in perfect english so he and I came up with some ideas for a watch.

“Inverse” Drivers style analogue watch with mirror system.

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.

Peter says: Back in the day I did a design called “UFO” which featured a wrap around display that went around the perimeter of the watch and would have been useful as a driver’s watch.

Feasibility was one of the stumbling blocks for that design. Since that design, I have a had a few thoughts on how to make a drivers watch with a similar look but much easier to make.

I then had a eureka moment and realised that it could be done relatively easily using an off the shelf analogue movement.

Minimalist ‘EInked’ ring-watch and companion wristwatch

Design submitted by Jose from Spain.

Jose says: This idea came to me, inspired by classic watches of the fifteenth century, in which the hours were represented in Roman characters and a single hand marked the passage of time, so I thought maybe it could be interesting to develop a different concept starting from a model classic watch.

Wear Big Ben LIVE on your wrist!

Design submitted by Andy from the Ukraine.

Andy says: I decided to design concept watch based on hi-tec technologies, internet and on-line camera.

I wanted to offer you an up close and personal uninterrupted view with Big Ben by designing a watch that can display the image of Big Ben clock in real time. The main idea is to utilize a camera aimed at this architectural masterpiece, in this case London iconic clock tower. The camera sends a video GPS signal via satellite which captured and displayed by Ban Watch on its large sized LED display while the bottom screen is used to display user’s local time.
