The watch is available in both black or silver, and the name means infinity, so time and infinity go well together as does the way the time is displayed through a series of digital blocks which spiral around into infinity, quite aptly in fact. So how do you tell the time? It is relatively simple really, there are sixty blocks, each representing one minute each, they are grouped in tens, and with a inner spiral that represents one hour each, once used to the display it would be relatively simple to tell the time at glance, while everyone else is stumped at trying to either work out what is or what the time is.

One feature in the display is that every minute the display will spiral into the center, and then back out again before returning to the time setting once more, another weird and wonderful idea that will keep friends and colleagues busy for days, while you can after a few day be able to tell the time as fast as if it were a standard time piece.

Other notable features of this watch are it’s small size & weight.

Citizen has always been at the fore front of watch making technology, from the first digital type watches and though to their latest offering, the watch that has a bluetooth capability.

Before your mobile phone rings, your watch will pick up the signal coming through and alert you before the mobile rings, this will give you an advantage if you are away from your desk, outside or traveling, I cannot even imagine to begin to count how many calls I have missed when my mobile phone has been in the pocket of my coat or when being out in a busy street, with this watch you will never miss another call again.

Another cool little feature is if you leave the phone somewhere, the watch will detect that the distance is to far and alert you to the fact that you may have left your mobile phone somewhere, now that is a pretty good tool, how many times have people left their phones in places and have not realized until it is far to late?

The watch is going to be launch in the middle of March, but initially that will be for just Japan, but it will surely move around the globe as it becomes more and more popular.

This really is a gadget: the MP4 watch. It allows you listen to music, view photos and watch movies. Sadly, it has a few disadvantages, as it only is able to show .raw photos and .nfx videos and uses 2.5mm headphones. It is available from Geekstuff4u in a 1GB and 2GB version for $161.62 and $38.50 more for the 2GB version.

No matter what, your geek and even non-geek friends will be impressed by this little one. Just don’t mention that watching the 2 hour movie gets a little, well, uncomfortable.

The watch is a MTM Black Hawk Special Ops Watch, to give it its full title, and it appears that Keifer Sutherland liked the watch so much, that he does actually were it when he is not being Jack Bauer, so the watch also has celeb appeal.

Built to special ops requirements the Black Hawk has been designed to withstand to sort of punishment that you would expect from this type of working environment, the watch has a special lighting system that allows the user to see the time and other details without actually becoming a beacon when on a covert operation, but the opposite of that is the external light which is used for signaling and in the event of an extraction, this light is in orange and can be seen for up to a mile away depending on terrain and weather conditions.

What’s more because of the robust nature of the watch, changing the batteries may cause the watch to lose some of it strength or maybe even not be put back together properly, so to alleviate this type of accidental damage the batteries are rechargeable and can be charged up in a similar manner as a mobile phone.

To complete your special ops design, you are able to choose between to types of watch strap, the heavy duty Velcro strap design, or the tough black rubber type strap, as additional straps, the watch comes with a brushed black metal bracelet type strap.

The price of this special watch is around £330 or $450 for the basic version, the price can go high, as you are willing to pay, so be careful.

Designed in the form of a bracelet, Swatch PMP watch serves a wide variety of functions. Apart from its removable face, the Swatch infinity concept watches also have MP3 player, video and photo viewer, and a type of recording function. However, it seems that it is not embedded with any built-in-camera. The Swatch watch probably has some sort of impromptu voice recorder.

Yet there is a growing trend recently in watches that do not appear to tell the time, or rather I should say not easily tell the time, this is true about the Nooka Zot Classic Watch, this is a normal looking watch from a distance, but close up you will not see the classic clock face or digital readout as we got to know so well, the Nooka Zot only has a series of holes and a slot, so how is it possible to tell the time with a watch that does not have any of the traditional features? Well there are a series of twelve dots which represent the twelve hours and a slot or bar that indicates the where about in the day the time is i.e. halfway would be midday and so on, it is not the sort watch that you would want to be wearing if you were in a hurry or five minutes late or something similar.

I suppose that the people who would be wearing a watch like this would not be the type of person who is chasing the clock all day long. Although the watches do come with an alarm and chronograph, for those of you who are a messy work, you will be pleased to know that the watch is easy to keep clean, you just have to wipe it with your T Shirt!

Surprisingly the these watches are not as expensive as you would be thinking, when you consider that this is a designer product from New York, the one illustrated is the Zot V2 and will cost around $250.

Looks interesting, especially when you take a close look and notice that Bluetooth logo beneath the display. Remote control for your other gadget devices? Maybe, but also notice that little jack on the top? Integrated flash memory? Possibly. But with Bluetooth that doesn’t make much sense…so, what about a receiver for your audio streaming? Maybe using your mobile phone as memory?

But who would want the headphone cables coming from their wrist? I prefer tucking it into my coat to be honest. Anyhow, this is all only a concept and pure speculation anyway.

The watch works within a distance of 30 feet from the phone. It vibrates when a call is incoming and displays the name or number of the caller in a sleek display panel beneath the watch face. The watch also displays the message alert icon when a SMS/MMS is received.The watch has a analog display.

The watch has buttons customized to be associated with the phone. To mute the phone’s ring signal a button is pressed once and when it is pressed twice the call is transferred to voice mail. Another button in the watch is used to activate the phone’s digital player. The watch also alerts the user if it is getting out of range.

The MBW-100 priced at $399 is currently compatible with a small number of enabled Sony Ericsson phones like the W710i. Though it is not in the league of genuinely next generation watches the MBW-100 is stylish and has its utility in helping people, have the habit of leaving behind their phones.

The watch weighing 187.5 grams has an elegant stainless steel body. The OLED display adds a futuristic look to the beauty of the watch. The watch comes in four different versions with prices ranging from $149-$399.
