‘kisai night vision’ watch by tokyoflash japan

the ‘kisai night vision‘ LED wristwatch from tokyoflashjapan continues the company’s inventiveness in watch face design with a hexagonal model whose abstract-looking design represents the time. an outer ring of sub-surface LEDs is broken with a flashing bar at the site of the hour (as would be read on an analog clock), while the minutes are written digitally in the center. the date is accessible by pressing the lower button along the watch’s side, where the month is shown in the outer ring and the date digitally in the center.

the watch also features an alarm mode and a light-up animation that can illuminate once every fifteen minutes between 6pm and midnight. ‘kisai night vision’ is rechargeable via USB, with a complete charge taking 3.5 hours and lasting approximately one month.

the watch actually began as the most highly voted concept on the blog of tokyo flash’s R&D. ‘kisai night vision’ is produced in blue, green, and red, with matte black stainless steel, retailing for 149 USD.
