alessi daytimer oled watch: chunky funky digital time

August 10th, 2009 comments (4) stumble it! digg it! by: technabob

It’s been a while since we featured a cool digital watch here on technabob. That’s not for lack of trying – I just haven’t seen anything particularly different in a while. So I was happy when I stumbled onto these funky new digital timepieces from Alessi.

Designed by renowned architect Will Alsop + Federico Grazzini, the Daytimer watch features a high-contrast blue OLED digital display, framed by a bold geometric polyurethane case.

Instead of just laying there like any old watch, the Daytimer features a 3-dimensional polygonal case structure that’s just slightly askew. As time passes, the display cycles through nine graphics (of what, I don’t know) on its OLED screen when you press the button to recall the time.

The Daytimer comes in four colors: red, green, purple and black, and is available from Emmo Home for $120 (USD).
