Sleek. Cool. The M1Watch by Michael Viscione.

What a great concept! MV's watch has a plethera of "gotta have" functions! The M1 is a blue tooth ready watch that displays the time, date, email updates, wifi access, the weather, directions, and even your heart rate. With its four button design paired with wireless BT headphones, it can skip through play lists , bring up detailed weather forecasts, and even answer a call with out ever reaching into your pocket. I guess kind of like an IPhone on a wrist band... only cooler...and cooler looking!

MV's solution creates one universal device that consolidates all the other devices into one tiny package , easily accessible and easy to use. JUST COOL I think!

fashion - time on our hands...

Just cool is this conceptual design of a watch worn on your thumbnail! To celebrate its 150th Anniversary and demonstrate an ongoing commitment to design and innovation, international watch brand Timex collaborated with Core77 to carry out a global design competition: Timex2154: THE FUTURE OF TIME that could highlight the state-of-the-art timekeeping pioneered by the company. This was just one of the runner ups.

The TX54 is a disposable timepiece worn on the user’s thumbnail. While its translucency makes it blend seamlessly with the hand, a selection of text color options and a glow feature that activates on command make it easy to read.

Friend says: Timekeeping goes off the wrist and onto the fingernail. Let’s see, when I fly to Europe, I can keep New York time on my left hand and London on the right!

I want it!
