Digital Wooden Time Tellers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Tokyoflash Kisai Night Vision Watch Version is Made of Wood

— May 13, 2014 — Fashion
The shape of the Tokyoflash Night Vision Watch should look a little familiar, except this version of the Kisai Night Vision Watch is completely made of wood. This update to the time teller design doesn't seem much like a watch at first, because the built-in LED lights are concealed under the wooden watch face. When it's off, it doesn't look like it should function as a watch, because there are no numbers or dials anywhere in sight.

When the LED display is lit up, the time is displayed in an unusual hexagonal number system with changing colors. The watch is made in multiple types of wood and its strap is adjustable. The LED watch can be charged with a USB cable and on the eco-friendly watch, its internal battery is also replaceable.

1. Wooden Time Tellers - There is a growing trend of integrating wood into the design of timepieces, creating a unique and eco-friendly aesthetic.
2. Concealed LED Displays - The use of concealed LED lights in watch designs is becoming popular, providing a minimalist and stylish look.

2. LED Technology - LED technology companies can develop innovative solutions for concealing LED displays in various products, such as watches.
3. Design and Manufacturing - Design and manufacturing companies can experiment with hexagonal number systems to create visually engaging and novel timepiece designs.
