Well words won’t really describe the level of gaudiness this watch displays, but its not good. It has a watch, calculator, and a telescoping ruler and the whole thing fits on your wrist.
Let’s play good idea bad idea, good idea, pack a lot of functionality into a given product making it more valuable. Bad idea, add all that functionality without any regard for appearances.
I assume that your $62 gets you both the watch and the tool box shaped packaging as well. Who knows though, I suppose if you have that quirky person in your circle that always wants nothing but tools you might as well get them one they will never use for fear of shame, thus causing them to likely ask for something else next year.

When working with mostly other dudes who the heck cares how you look? it’s not like you’d wear this outside the job. Most construction guys or work workers or anyone who would use this either work alone or work with other sweaty guys.
The real question is: how functional is it?

Can anyone else see Dwight Shrute of The Office (US) use this? ;)
