the 'kisai rogue' pocketwatch by tokyoflash


the latest release from japanese watch manufacturers tokyoflash, the 'kisai rogue' pocketwatch
is a device whose classic stainless steel case belies the futuristic touchscreen watchface.

the watch features a hybrid LCD/LED interface, so the time is always readable although the display
can be further illuminated on command via an LED backlight. four zones along the edge of the screen
offer touch access to the functions of changing the mode, time or date, setting the alarm, or lighting up
the screen. the screen automatically locks after 60 seconds without input, unlockable with a swipe
from left to right. an optional feature offers an illuminated animation every five minutes.

the time is read in the following manner: the outermost ring indicates the hour, with a break to indicate
the position of the hour; just inside is a circle of smaller dots, indicating the minutes. the two centermost
rings function in the same manner, but indicating the time at an optionally selected second time zone.

the 'kisai rogue' is produced in blue, green, red, and black, for a retail cost of 150 USD.

I haven't been using a watch for many years, instead relying on my phone to show the time. Finally, here is a watch I would LOVE to own!

I like this. I have a TF watch with, oddly, an analog face and Citizen movement. Its really beautiful and i was lucky to get it. TF watches come and go quickly, same as Swatch do so if you like it, grab it soon. My TF watch is very good quality. As for this, i dont know.

I dont`t like the backlight, it`s not consistent and looks cheap. Apart from that it`s nice original product.

haha, they made it better, except maybe a display - but at least they should send me a one copy ;), just because we think so similar.
