Having only just recently featured TokyoFlash’s Kisai Denshoku LED watch, here we have yet another LED watch, namely the TokyoFlash Ni, from an outfit that prides itself on making time telling so unnecessarily complicated in the name of ‘style’ that they even offer a PDF manual with instructions as to how to read it.
According to TokyoFlash’s Ni webpage:
The display moves across the face in a sweeping manner, with the time progressing in the same direction. A single touch of the upper button sends the lights into a sparkling animation before the time is displayed.
Each LED on the lowest line indicates two hours, the line above indicates a single hour, a combination presenting the current hour. Groups of 10 minutes are presented on the centre line and single minutes on the upper two lines. The date can be read in a similar manner with second touch of the upper button. Subtle etched graphics on the face make reading the time easy.
And, reassuringly, if this has merely served to perplex you all the more, further detail can be gained from a PDF offered to ease prospective purchasers into the idea of wearing a watch that they’ll quite possibly never truly get to grips with.
Frankly it’s all becoming a bit much now.
The TokyoFlash Ni will set you back around $144 though you’ll excuse us for looking elsewhere.
