Believe it or not, “time” was an idea create by man. I learned that in a philosophy class somewhere. The great thing about time, is that throughout the years man has devised cool and neat ways to measure it. First, we had the sundial which I still use to this day, but freaking clouds can ruin the experience. Then we moved to measuring time using new fangled technologies with gears, and our traditional number face plats.

Now, by no surprise at all, a company,”TokyoFlash” has upped the ante in time telling technology. There’s nothing quite as cool as a LED light show, and time measurement is no exception. Their newest model, “Infection”, seemingly looks like a watch, there’s a faceplate, with a band for you wrist. Instead of a number plate to give you the time, it uses green, yellow, and red LED lights. Red represents hours on a 12 hour scale, while yellow measures increments of 5 minutes, and the green narrows it further by providing single minute readouts.

As one of their tag line read, “No one is immune to Infection”. The watches are only 13,900 yen ($139), and for a LED watch, I think it’s reasonable.
