Today’s post showcases ten brilliant wristwatch designs. Enjoy!
10 – RADAR Watch
Innovative watch design inspired by a radar screen. Outer arc represents the minutes and the inner arc indicates the hour.
09 – Seiko Paper Watch
The unique electronic paper display module in this Seiko watch is the result of a joint development effort, bringing together E Ink’s ‘electronic ink’ technology and Seiko Epson’s advanced display manufacturing and electronic circuitry techniques. When combined, these technologies offer a wide range of display design possibilities – including flexibility!
08 – Retro Icon Watch
Creative wristwatch inspired by the classic 8-bit look.
07 – Seiko Discus Watch
Beautiful watch from Seiko Japan uses a series of spinning aluminum discs to display the current time.
06 – More or Less Watch
This watch offers you two ways of looking at time – around the circumference of the dial the words “one more, one less” slowly revolve. This presents a balanced way of viewing the passing of time in our lives.
05 – Abacus Magnetic Watches
The Abacus series of watches has no hands at all. Instead, there’s just a single steel sphere that rolls around inside the watch as you move your wrist around. But as soon as you level out to a horizontal position, a magnet behind the dial stops the ball at the current time.
04 – Swatch Infinity Watch
Mp3/Video/Photo Player Watch by Pierre Merlet.
03 – F1 Carbon Watch
Designed by John Pszeniczny, this cool watch is inspired by F1 racing and constructed of carbon fiber, Swarovski crystal, rubber and metal.
02 – Diesel Multi Display Watch
Five miniature movements are aligned vertically and curved to lie comfortably on the wrist. The stainless steel case has etched airport codes corresponding to NY, LA, London, Paris and Tokyo.
01 – Transformers Watch
Awesome watch magically transforms into a free standing robot.

I remember having several of the transformer watches with my friends in the early nineties. We would all get together and have transformer watch battles.
Good times

Those watches are actually pretty cool designs. I don’t think I dig the radar one based on its looks. The magnet one is an interesting idea, but no minute hand pushes the balance over too much into style over function. Nice collection, though.

Yes they are Photoshopped, all product shots are. I don’t think this poster is trying to pass these off as his own, he is just showing us some cool watch’.

Watches are pretty much useless nowadays. Almost every electronic device displays the time, so why should I bother wearing a watch?

Wow, that was an utter disappointment for the #1 spot. It was almost as if you made the entire article on that one watch. My favorite was #7

Yes, I remember when I had the transformer watch when I was just a kid.
The other watch designs are too futuristic for current use perhaps 20 years from now they will become fashionable.

That Seiko “Dicsus” watch is a pretty direct copy of the “mechanical-digital” or “direct-read” watches made in Switzerland in the late-’60s, just before LEDs were inexpensively available. Two of the more common brands were Lucerne and Sicura. Incidentally, those watches were themselves derivative of the Elgin jump-hour watches of the late-’50s, and they of watches made by companies like Juvenia as far back as the 1930s. The configuration of chapters (hour, minute and second markers) on rotating disks has been around almost as long as the wristwatch has.

I was more or less agreeing with the top til I saw number 2 and 1 :F
Those two belong to the kitsch realm :P
There are lots of better designs that could be replacing them.
I think that nowadays a watch is either a symbol of status (like a rolex) or fashion/style (like some of these), they are not for time telling anymore…that’s just an extra function ;)
