Looking Back at The Concept Watch with No Face

Looking very much like a time portal, the M60M has no watch dial to speak of .  All the time display is in the bezel. This awesome concept designed by Roger Kellenberger in 2007 brought the quest for an uncluttered dial to a whole new level.  I wonder what Nathan George Horwitt, creator of the Movado Museum Watch would think of that.  If you are a stickler for punctuality this watch may not be for you, since the steel and rubber M60M only displays time in full hours and full quarter of an hour.  No seconds and no minutes.  So I bet you are wondering where the movement is located.  Well there is only one place it can be located and that is in the bezel. The hour and quarter of an hour markings are fixed on the bezel and a single rotating marker indicates the time.  The watch is precise, to the quarter of an hour. The strap is also pretty cool with a unique closing system which springs open with a touch of a button.  Roger Kellenberger gave no prospective date the watch will be available for purchase, and still four years down the line the M60M still has not made its debut, maybe he is a bit ahead of time since this watch would look great with those intergalactic space suits.

When You Just Gotto Watch!


Check this out! A Video Watch with an impressive 8GB of internal flash memory and a full color 1.8" screen. This Watch/Video/Million other features is crafted from stainless steel. High pixel count and frames per second make viewing a joy. With a built-in voice recorder, built-in high quality speaker and earphone jack, the ability to view JPEG pictures and listen to music at the same time, etc. I wouldn't wear it to a business meeting, it may seem a little loud... but I think I could put this thing to good use.



This one has an OLED screen, and it is slightly more reserved. Sigh! Modern Technology sure is something turning a watch into a your very own cinema.



How far we have come from the times where moving black and white films were only available in vast ornate movie theatres. Where the thrill of the crowd was palpable as dramatic scenes lit up the wonder struck upturned faces.



Gizmos and Gadgets are being produced at a furious pace, and I must admit their is a definite Wow factor to them, not in reverence to the way they have been crafted, but merely as a gadget to fasten the pace of life.
