Reminiscent of a Tron-styled watch, TokyoFlash, the unique watch manufacturer, has posted another concept watch design on their website. This innovative design has been created by Hea’thër from Bluton & Sam from Germany. The watch’s display uses ‘always on’ LCD technology, allowing it to be set to light up every 30 seconds to show the time and then fade out again.
Innovative Lighting Features
The light-up function of the V-BL47 concept watch is truly a marvel of modern design. It features a backlight that illuminates the watch face, making it easy to read in low-light conditions. Additionally, there are 2 LEDs on the sides of the case that glow through two lateral translucent buttons. This unique feature not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also enhances the functionality of the watch. Furthermore, 4 LEDs in the case glow through and along the fiber optic lines embedded in the strap, creating a visually striking effect that is sure to turn heads.
The inspiration for this futuristic design is explained by its designers, Hea’thër & Sam:
“In 1947, a Blutonian vessel crash-landed on Earth, and in searching through the debris, scientists were fascinated to learn that objects that came from the planet Bluton glow purple when exposed to Earth’s atmosphere. In view of the fact that the vessel’s crew was never recovered, many believe that there are Blutonian natives living among us today, hiding in plain sight. You may even be able to recognize them by their sense of style – all have an affinity for objects that remind them of their home planet, objects that glow.”
Design and Aesthetic Appeal
The V-BL47 concept watch is not just about functionality; it is also a statement piece. The design is sleek and modern, with a touch of otherworldly charm that makes it stand out from conventional watches. The use of fiber optic lines along the strap is a nod to futuristic design elements, reminiscent of the visual aesthetics seen in science fiction movies like Tron. This makes the watch not only a timekeeping device but also a piece of wearable art.
Moreover, the concept of objects from the planet Bluton glowing purple when exposed to Earth’s atmosphere adds an intriguing backstory to the watch. This narrative element enriches the overall appeal, making it more than just a gadget but a conversation starter. Imagine wearing a watch that not only tells the time but also tells a story of extraterrestrial origins and hidden civilizations.
The V-BL47 concept watch is a testament to the innovative spirit of TokyoFlash and the creative minds of Hea’thër & Sam. It pushes the boundaries of traditional watch design, incorporating advanced technology and imaginative storytelling. Whether you are a tech enthusiast, a fashion-forward individual, or someone who appreciates unique and innovative designs, the V-BL47 concept watch is sure to captivate your interest.
