Lightmare watch is true to its namesake

James Allan Brady, Feb 1st 2008 Discuss [0]

It really is a light up nightmare to read. Almost as bad as some of the Tokyo Flash watches, I think their needs to be a board that certifies these watches with difficulty levels based on how hard they are to read. Read The Full Story

TokyoFlash Tibida not for the faint of heart, but for those 10 types of people

James Allan Brady, Jan 23rd 2008 Discuss [1]

Please excuse my cheesy little binary joke, but this watch will work with both types of people, those that can read binary and those that can’t as the 42-LED array is arranged in such a way that you can choose to tell time in binary or other methods. Those other methods include hour centric or minute centric, basically the watch will print out the number of the minute or the hour kind of like your old high school’s score board.

Christina Crouch, Jan 22nd 2008 Discuss [1]

Back in the good old days if people wanted to remember something they tied a string around their finger to help them. I think that’s where the Multimedia Remote Watch got its inspiration. Sure, now you remember to feed the dog but do you remember where you left the TV remote when you got up to do it? Now you don’t have to remember because it’s always with you. Read The Full Story

Christina Crouch, Jan 16th 2008 Discuss [1]

The Matrix watch is a little bit different then you’re normal run of the mill watch. It uses LCD bars at the top and bottom of its display to show you the time. Sound difficult? It isn’t. Read The Full Story

Christina Crouch, Jan 10th 2008 Discuss [0]

Garmin showed off it’s Forerunner 405 watch and I must say it’s pretty awesome, and coming from someone who hates watches that’s saying something. Since it’s from Garmin, it is, of course, GPS enabled but it also has a lot of other good features like speed, distance and heart rate track. Read The Full Story

Christina Crouch, Dec 24th 2007 Discuss [12]
