Watches Versus Cell Phones

February 24th, 2010

It’s not surprising that many people opt to use their cell phones to check the time in lieu of wearing a wrist watch. Cell phones have become the next multi-function platform; people can use their cell phones as planners, alarm clocks, and GPS units; cell phones can serve as a web browser, supports webmail, offers weather reports, and newsfeed. So why bother with a wrist watch when everything is conveniently taken care of in one package?

Here are a few reasons:

1. Convenience: Believe it or not, using a wrist watch to check the time is much more convenient than flipping out your cell phone. The simple action of looking at your wrist as opposed to fishing out your cell phone from your cluttered purse or stuffed pockets is substantially easier, especially if you’re in a rush. Plus, it’s substantially more difficult to get your cell phone fixed as opposed to finding a shop that offers say Rolex watch repair.

2. Efficiency: Checking the time on your watch saves you the trouble of locating your cell phone, not to mention mitigating the strong possibility of getting distracted from all of the applications and operations that are available on your cell phone.

3. Style: A wrist watch can be that final touch to your ensemble, that little extra something that could mean the difference between adequate and breathtaking. In the case of most formal functions, cell phones are only taken out to receive calls of import and that Rolex shining on your wrist would be much more appropriate for the occasion.

Who Watches Video on Their Wrist Watch?

February 15th, 2010

It’s not unheard of for someone to access online videos or stored movies files from platforms other than a laptop. Hand held gaming consoles such as the PSP, cellular phones, and even select mp3 players have this capacity. So does it strike as a surprise to anyone that even wrist watches now have video capabilities? Although there haven’t been that many released, some watch companies are adopting this approach for their respective products. Here are two wrist watches on the market now:

1. The ThinkGeek Video Watch with OLED screen has both video and audio capabilities in addition to its primary time-keeping function. With a storage capacity of 8 gigabytes, the Video Watch has more than enough space for videos and music. The full color 128×128 pixel screen delivers crystal clear video or image viewing for the wearer, and the watch support widely used file formats such as JPEG and BMP. The Video Watch’s audio player supports MP3 and WMA files and, with the built-in microphone, allows wearers to record as well, a perfect tool for students attending lectures or professionals during staff meetings. The style of the Video Watch is surprisingly slim given its various features and charges by a USB link.

2. The LG Watch Phone has adopted the same touch-screen feature that is now available on many cellphones and laptops. As the name suggests, the watch double functions as both a watch and a cellphone, making their bulkier communicative cousins obsolete in one tiny, manageable package. The LG Watch Phone also has a built-in music player for its wearer, which may seem obsolete given its tiny size. But the watch’s volume is surprisingly loud, and it comes with a Bluetooth headset for the wearer’s convenience. The watch’s video capabilities and camera are apparently geared towards video conferencing for the business oriented rather than video viewing.

We’d feel that these products would probably appeal to a broad spectrum of customers, from business professionals to college students.

Top 5 LED Binary Watches

February 8th, 2010

Fellow nerds can easily identify each other now from the crowd with LED binary watches. For the rest of us average watch wearers, binary watches are a new development we’ve only recently learned about, if at all. The premise of a LED binary watch is simple, albeit the explanation may seem complicated. Basically, time is gaged by the binary patterns of lights on the watch that uses a number system based on multiples of two. Hours are set in the first row and minutes are set in the row below it. The divisions of the hours are set as such: 1, 2, 4, and 8. Minutes are set like so: 1, 2 , 4, 8, 16, 32. Each increment has its own respective light, and a watch wearer would add up the lit increments in order to get the time. This is a far cry from the traditional hour-colon-minutes, and may seem daunting, but it’s ostensible complexity belies an elementary grasp of mathematics. Some LED binary watches vary, but this is the basic premise.

So what are the top five LED binary watches out there right now?

1. 01 The One Art Edition Split-screen watch is fashioned in a retro style with the binary patterns bookending the artwork in the middle. It certainly looks exquisite, and the watch comes with additional features such as water-resistance and long battery life. Unfortunately, the watch doesn’t have an AM/PM differentiation, which can prove somewhat irksome.

2. The Zero Kelvin LED binary watch has a different pattern from traditional binary watches. In lieu of two rows, the watch has five columns. The first on the far left is the hour column divided into contemporary increments of 1 through 12. The four columns to the left show the minutes within a given hour, and have separate increments ranging from 5 to 60. The style of the watch looks almost space-age, and the LED animation is entrancing to look at. However, this watch also lacks AM/PM differentiation, and the additional LED columns can prove bewildering for new watch wearers.

3. The Tokyo Flash Men’s “Barcode SS” watch is a little similar to the previously mentioned Zero Kelvin at first glance, but the watch has its own unique set of charms. The style is comfortably modern, and there are four columns, but unlike the previous watches, there are no increments written on the sides. A watch wearer would simply tell the time by counting the lights in the columns respectively. This watch is powered by lithium batteries that are easily replaced.

4. 01 The One Men’s Lightmare Fashion watch is a truly special watch. The LED lights are set in a circular formation, and the hours and minutes are represented by the their respective revolutions. Second are counted off by the single row of lights in the middle. Its design lends an air of authority and innovation unlike its comtemporaries. Additionally, the watch is water-resistant!

5. The Tokyo Flash Kisai Sensei binary LED watch is a beautiful time ticker. Its design is unlike any other LED binary watch, somewhat resembling a delicate piece of circuitry one normally doesn’t seen underneath the face plate of a given machine. Its shape is also unconventional for wrist watches, the watch takes on the form of a square, and the multicolor LED pattern has an impressive-looking layout. The Kisai Sensi comes in its own aluminium black case.
