Step Into The Future With Time Traveler’s Watch

admin — Fri, 21 May 2010 19:16:15 +0000

A clock is essentially a time machine in that it is our only connection with time as we travel through it. Taking the clock one step further, designer Christie Brashers has designed a watch that can actually take you into the past and future. The watch disguises itself as fashionable wrist wear until touch-activated by the time traveler. It first shows the traveler which point in time he is currently in as the dots disappears and the date becomes visible. Before traveling, he selects a destination in time by scrolling his finger along the blue lines to shuffle through the year, month, day and time of day. When each time specification is determined, he is launched into space. Using OLED and digital scroll technology, the time traveler’s watch is more than just a timepiece that literally steps into the future.
