Awesome Cylon Wristwatches Easier To Read If You're An Actual Cylon

These Kisai Denshoku watches are gorgeous brushed-metal bodied instruments, available for $236 at Tokyo Flash, were inspired by the neon daylight of Tokyo's Shinjuku district but could have just as easily come from a Cylon Basestar - and you might need a Cylon's ability to read data in flashing red lights to tell the time, but it'd still be worth it.

They work like this: the number of lit bars tells the hour. Pressing a button initiates a three-phase time-telling animation: the bars flash the hour, then flash the number of ten-minute intervals that have elapsed since the hour began, and then flash the number of single-digit minutes that have elapsed since the last ten minute increment.

Yeah.

In other words, a flash of "4, 5, 6" would mean the time is 4:56.

That's something I could get used to, but only if my irises flash Cylon-red in response.
