Mutewatch




Taken from Engadget:

Watches that try do something really different aren't exactly all that common, but you can certainly say that about the just-announced Mutewatch. Described as a "silent alarm in the shape of a vibrating wristband," the watch features a hidden screen that activates on touch and lets you swipe to scroll between the timer, clock and alarm -- the latter of which simply vibrates rather than making a sound, and can be dismissed by pinching the watch. Best of all, this isn't simply a concept -- you can secure a pre-order for your choice of a white, gray or red watch now for €19, which will be deducted from the full €199 (or about $260) price when it eventually ships.

Watches nowadays arent so much used to tell time as they are a men's fashion accessory. So when selecting a watch, i usually think nothing of practicality and go purely for aesthetics. That said, this bitch is one awesome watch. Unfortunately, without any kind of video to show how it works IRL or review (its not even released yet as of this post), I can't justify $200 (actually its 200 euros). It is damn hot tho.
