'Wasted' Watch Simulates the Psychedelic Experience, Maybe Tells Time

Looking for the perfect wristwatch to complement your LSD-laced lifestyle? Still searching for a Christmas gift for your chronically late delivery guy? Look no further than Tokyoflash's new 'Wasted' LED watch -- a crunchy chronometer designed to simulate a chemically heightened, psychedelic state of mind (or so we're told).

Priced at $85, this USB-rechargeable watch features a sleek plastic case, a polyurethane band and a velvety, translucent lens that, according to Tokyoflash, "allows you see the mysterious layout of time beneath." And by "mysterious layout," they apparently mean "unbridled chaos." Numbers, time, space, existence -- they're all muddled into one goo ball of saucer-pupiled goodness on Wasted's display. It's allegedly possible to use the watch to figure out what time it is, but the system is far too complex for our unenlightened minds to grasp. Check out the video demo after the break for an explanation, but you'll probably need some psychoactive assistance to understand it.
