Japan’s high-tech watch importer TokyoFlash has been carrying watches from the Pimp line since about 2003. The original series of watches was made popular by its unconventional displays and retro modern design sensibility. Now Pimp is updating some of their original designs with a fresh new look.
Rather that the shiny stainless cases of the first-gen Pimp watches, the three new models in the “Pusher” series all feature a gloss black metal body and a black leather band. First up, there’s the P1 Pusher which features an array of multi-colored dots to tell the time.
Then, there’s the P2 Pusher which ticks off the hours and minutes using a grid of blue or white LED squares.
Finally, there’s the P3 Pusher watch which uses a retro “computer” typeface to display the time using digits.
All three watches water resistant to 3 atmospheres (about 99 feet) and are available for pre-order now for ¥15,900 (appx. $135 USD).

now, i appreciate the fact that these are fresh new models, and also the fact that pimpin ain’t easy, but i STILL have no clue how to tell time on this watch.

the scholar: In that case, you never will.
First watch shows 07:39
Second watch shows: 07:17
Third watch shows: 19:26
Telling time, it’s a requierment for day to day acticities, learn it fast.

But clearly spelling isn’t

Well vernes I would proof read your comments a little better in the future. You might want to have a dictionary handy so you can spell activities properly. Also the third watch shows 14:26 not 19:26. Looks like you should learn to spell and tell time. Learn it fast brainchild.
