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 ...

The Web is teeming with the unrealized ideas of both students and established designers who set out to produce astonishing renderings and prototypes for unusual products. Unfortunately, due to the lack of time, money, or technology, many of those products never move from the planning stages to the mass market. But that doesn't mean we can't salivate over their creations, nevertheless.
The good ...

The iPod Nano wristwatch has arrived, and it's probably the best use for the Nano these days. Even Steve Jobs mentioned the Nano's potential as a watch when unveiling it to the world. So, grab a slim-enough wristband, loop it through the clip on the back, and see your fellow Apple fanboys get green with envy. Also, as a disclaimer, you may want to invest in some Bluetooth headphones, or at least ...

We didn't think we could be any prouder of our 70 Under 70 Guide, but we are. We're so excited about it, in fact, that we want to give you, dear readers, one of our favorite gifts from the list in a very special Switched holiday giveaway. Three Timex watches sit lonely and unloved in our headquarters, waiting to be taken home by three people that loves retro, Wall Street-inspired, stretchy, ...

One of the most talked about products from this year's Consumer Electronics Show was LG's Dick Tracy-esque watch phone prototype. The device can link to your headset via Bluetooth, or you can fulfill all your crime noir fantasies and talk directly to your wrist. Necessary? Probably not, but the touch screen device's sleek interface has to be seen to be believed: Check out our hands on video with ...

When a press release is laced with words like "handbag," "sophisticated," and "vibrates," it's clearly targeting the fairer sex. Sony Ericsson's new MBW-200 watches display caller ID and rumble on the wrist when a call comes in to your Bluetooth connected cellphone. You can then reject or mute the call directly from the watch. The Fossil designed, glare- and scratch-resistant time keepers come ...

You're a wealthy industrialist and you've spent more money on jewelry than most Americans will see in their entire lives. You deserve a safe that is attractive enough to be a display piece itself, but is secure enough to repel the most seasoned cat burgler. To this end, Stockinger -- the first name in luxury safes -- has teamed up with Bentley Motors Ltd. to produce two limited edition ...

var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/gadgets/The_Jaeger_LeCoultre_Watch_That_Unlocks_Aston_Martin_DBS'; You know that Aston Martin DBS not sitting in your driveway? Here's the watch to not go with it, the €27,500 (more than $40,000) Jaeger LeCoultre AMVOX2 DBS Transponder. First spotted last year, the Swiss timepiece capable of locking and unlocking the DBS from a distance of 10-meters has ...

Generally speaking, watch phones are rarely useful. Not so much because of lackluster hardware or incompatible drivers, but due to the fact that no one with any dignity will ever be caught wearing one. The CECT Wrist, however, actually isn't a ghastly looking device at all, and although it's far from being a Sea-Dweller, we can't help but give props for the semi-stylish design. Specs wise, the ...

Now that most smartphones worth having sport WiFi, the need for wireless finders has dwindled somewhat, but we'll still give credit to the designers of this WiFi-detecting watch for cleverness. That's not to say we'd ever recommend wearing this this fashion disaster -- check out that "WiFi" button on the bezel -- but if you're on a mission to consolidate your gear and you don't mind the mocking ...

See, now we're torn. Do we spend our imaginary rainbow dollars on that Real Crystal LED Watch concept we saw the other day, or do we pretend like we could ever scrap together enough pennies to afford this very real De Grisogono Meccanico DG timepiece? The watch is apparently the first all-mechanical digital watch -- no LED trickery here -- and is sure to cost a fortune. Only 177 of 'em are being ...

Having trouble waking up in the morning? Your daily battle against the Zs might not be a function of being a bad or heavy sleeper, but could simply be that you're trying to wake up during a particularly deep moment of rest.
The $149 SleepTracker wristwatch monitors your nightly sleep cycles and wakes you up in the morning during an optimal moment of light sleep, which, according to the ...

Carpe Diem, live for the moment, there's no time like the present, and other such trite figures of speech combined with a healthy sense of irony have produced the 'NOW Watch.' There isn't much to explain. This trendy, wide-band watch has a face that simply says 'NOW.' No hidden watch face, no obscured digital read out. Just large, reflective letters that spell out 'Now.' Perhaps it says ...

In some ways we're shocked this took this long. Yes, there have been cell phone watches and TV watches in the past, but they've all been clunky behemoths that look like home-arrest anklets worn on the arm. Thankfully, SMS Technology Australia has just released the "world's smallest" cell phone, the M500 Mobile Phone-Watch. Now, your childhood dreams (or, more likely, your father's childhood ...
