The JLr7 (which gets its name from the top row of LEDs on the watch) displays a series “L”-shaped LED (either in green or blue) segments which reveal the current time in a sufficiently difficult to read way that you’ll need to refer to the diagram below to have any hope of figuring out what time it is.

My favorite feature: “Between 6pm & Midnight the watch animates automatically every 15 mins to give the effect that it is malfunctioning.”

Perfect for those who want to make a statement (the statement being “I don’t really care what time it is,”) the JLr7 is available from TokyoFlash for about $85 bucks.
