Despite his recent “everything I have designed is absolutely unnecessary” comment, I’m still a sucker for most everything Philippe Starck creates. His latest watch design – the Crystal Clear – is a real stunner.

Despite its name, the Crystal Clear actually sports an red face, not a clear one. The watch features a smooth black polyurethane band and a large LCD display which shows through its transparent ruby red face. A stainless steel bezel does a nice job offsetting the display from the band.

And if black isn’t your thing, it also looks like there’s a white version of the watch in the works too.

Who says design is dead? The Crystal Clear watch should start shipping on or about 10/25/2008 over at the Fossil website for $125 USD.

    Actually, those watches are clear… though not “crystal” clear. There is a little grey tint to the face from the LCD. It is actually really kinda good since it helps to hide the arm hair. The green and grey one is by far my favorite. You should head out to a Fossil store and see if you agree.
