This is the perfect gift for the uber geek.

1000100101 Tokyoflash watch. Black with Blue LED.


Straight off the wrist of a Moon Base Commander from a 1960's Sci-Fi classic, this watch features all the things that you'd expect. Flat metal panel, cryptic flashing lights, carbon fibre style strap and display that looks like it's gauging your oxygen level.

Telling the time uses the 4 marked areas on the face. The first single light indicates 10 hours, the next 9 are 1 hour each. These are used to indicate hours 1-12.
The next 5 lights represent 10 mins each & the last 9 are 1 min each. Using these you can read 1-59 minutes.
After reading that it makes sense and is pretty cool.

That is really geeky, but I love it. I could see myself buying it. I just know I would get asked so many questions about it, and would have to explain myself 0b11110100001001000000 times =]
