In a world where eco-friendly technology has gone to great lengths to show us that it needn’t be ugly as sin, it’s almost a relief to find a product that seemingly revels in its crapness.  Citizen has taken the fashionable coolness of solar-power and put it in a klunky watch case with horrible lettering.  Well done, guys!

Hidden under that unpleasantly fat-armed dial is a solar panel that keeps the radio-controlled watch ticking for up to five years from a full-charge.  That means five full years of wrist-mounted embarrassment for just $319.  Huzzah!
