Wi-Fi Signal Status Now On Your Wrist!

For a geek on the go, checking for wi-fi is like checking to see if it's raining outside. It's an essential resource that is necessary for proper operation of the many gadgets that we carry. When wi-fi is not available it can really rain on your parade and cause you to go searching for a nice safe place to connect.

This wristwatch tells you the wi-fi signal strength at the push of a button. The strength is shown as a number from 0 to 8, letting you know exactly what kind of connectivity you can expect or if you need to move a little closer to the access point. The Wi-Fi Detecting Watch also has other features (alarm, countdown timer) and is well styled with steel case and rubber strap band.

Features:
- A smart digital watch with WiFi Detector.
- Pushing the watches' WiFi button starts the detection process. The strength is shown numerically with 0 being the weakest and 8 the strongest.
- Time is displayed digitally, displaying the time in hours, minutes and seconds.
- An alarm function, countdown, hourly chime, dual time and lap memory complete the watches' repertoire.
- The watch is shock-proof and is water resistant to 100m.
- Size: Watch face: 1.6" x 1.2" / 4cm x 3cm.

Pimp your wrist with the flashiest funk watch around! With a forty digit digital display and four iconic icons, the Pimp Star Performer Watch, by Tokyo Flash, is 1.1cm thick in solid stainless steel, with a double spring clasp and a mineral crystal face with mirrored digits. The icons along the top of the watch indicate whether it's a.m. or p.m. as well as the day and year for its date function. It's a watch for revellers as it 'Pimps Up' at 7pm with a firework like display that turns off at 1.00 a.m., just as you're moving on to the next club - and it looks way cool. The time is displayed by numbers lighting up in the four vertical columns, for example 1 - 2 - 3 - 4, would be 12.34, a.m. would be shown by the clock icon illuminating, and p.m., by the martini glass icon lighting up. Blissfully unconventional and just a little bit bling, the Pimp Star Performer comes in both black and silver and is about as flash as it gets.

Features:

-Super slick LED watches.
- Made from solid stainless steel.
- Choose from the gunmetal black or the stylish silver versions.
- Mineral crystal face.
- Mirrored digits.
- A double spring clasp.
- 4 columns each headed by a clock, a sun, a dollar sign or a Martini glass.
- At the touch of just one button a number will appear in the four columns revealing the time in LEDs - blue for the black watch and white for the silver.
- At the second touch of the button the sun column emblem will illuminate and the day and date is revealed on the LEDs.
- At the third touch of the button the year is revealed in the 4 columns.
- The Martini glass will glow when it is the afternoon signifying drinks time.
- Choose from displaying the time in 12 or 24 hour clock.
- Press the buttons to reveal the time etc and once a minute for the next 12 minutes you will be treated to a little light show on the watch and then it will stop.
- Between the hours of 7pm and 1am, known we are told as "Pimp Time", this light show will go off every minute regardless.

A watch with multi-gigs of built-in storage capacity - perfect for transporting your files!

You may recall from Episode IV that R2 was carrying some important files destined for delivery to Obi-Wan. These files were, of course, a distress message from Princess Leia and plans for the Empire's newly operational battle station.

The USB connector is cleverly stored in the watch band and flips up for easy connecting. There is also a LED light that indicates the device status.

Time is of course relative and yet in the grand scheme of things somewhat ethereal, making it fairly confusing stuff. So rather than getting bogged down in absolutes that in essence don't truly exist, surely it's better to make the whole time telling thing approximate, and therefore naturally more interesting. Whatever that means.

The Tokyo Flash B Version Watch is certainly not into absolutes, it's more about probability theory and approximations, or something like that. With a watch face that looks like it's been ripped from the con of a submarine, and a very neat pre-time whizzy LED display, it tells the time (when it's stopped being flashy and funky) using three separate indicators. The round face with its radar-like blue line tells you the hour, the short bar tells you the minutes in multiples of 10, and the long bar in sub-ten minute increments.

So by our reckoning, the image here says it's about 2.24, but who cares what the actual time is, when the design of the watch and trying to work it out is what it's all about.

Features:

- A snazzy Led watch with scrolling blue LEDS.
- A genuine black leather strap with black stitching detail.
- A black watch face.
- 2 buttons on the side: one to adjust and the other to show the time.
- Three displays to indicate the time.
- Blue LEDs scroll for 4 seconds before resting on the time.
- Circle display to show the hour.
- Short column to display the tens of minutes.
- A long column to display minutes in denominations of less than 10.
- Size: Watch Face: 4.5 x 2.5 x 1cm. Strap: 12 cm (each).

A must for watch enthusiasts and techies alike. Time is fleeting - why not have fun with it?

It's not often that you'll find the words 'fashion' and 'technology' in the same sentence, but when it comes to the Dot Matrix Watch it's unavoidable. So deliciously designed that it's almost edible (despite missing many of your RDA vitamins), these leather wristband watches are studded with a matrix of black LEDs that, at the touch of a button, glow red and do a funky kind of Mexican wave scroll effect and then display the time in classic Dot Matrix style - and a second press will display the date.

Available in black leather with red lights, the Dot Matrix's can display both 24hr and 12hr time, and has a built-in power saving mode, so the time or date is automatically switched off after three seconds. This leather strapped Dot Matrix Watch is exceedingly high in style.

Starck's visions for luxury hotels, wolrd-famous restaurants, furniture and mega yachts have made him a legend in the design community. Starck, with Fossil, has elevated design in time to an unimaginable state blending function and fashion. The crystal is specially electroplated to mimic the breaks in the bracelet, and the sides of the case to continue the effect with carefully etched details for design continuity. The crown is a case-back pusher to continue the uncluttered elegance of this style. The shiny stainless steel bracelet is designed to remain thin and comfortable with hidden links. Veiled by Fossil.
