MB&F HM4 Thunderbolt is a timepiece built in the likeliness of an aircraft, with its dual dials fully playing the part of jet engines. Now with a body like that, who wouldn’t want to show off? MB&F has now dressed up the timepiece in battledress for a limited edition watch. Available in two editions, each limited to just eight pieces, the HM4 Squadron has been created to mimic fighter planes from the World War II.
Wryst Variance concept lets you play around with the looks of the watch. And by looks we don’t just mean the strap, although the Wryst will work with different straps, keychains, and even dog tags. What is unique about the concept watch is that it can have its face change color and design as well. The face of the watch works as a display that can change into various different styles, and clearly is the USP of this product. Wryst Variance concept has been designed by Ben Pritz.
Flip Clocks, they’re freakin’ cool, and having one for the wrist would be kind of amazing. I’m not quite sure if flip watches have actually ever existed, so that kind of makes this concept quite desirable. Designed by Gordon for TokyoFlash Design, the watch kind of goes with its retro inspiration to show time in all its mechanical glory. And we totally dig that.
This nixie watch on the wrist is like the perfectly beautiful geek card anyone could have wished for. Costs $395.

A few months back, there was a barrage of iPod Nano themed watches. They looked pretty good, and they would tell time, but lets face it, the destiny of the iPod is to play music not tell time. The power of Android though would probably make watches smarter and suitable for modern times. Named i’m Watch, it can connect to iPhones, Android devices and possibly future smartphones as well.
Minus 8 Watches are the brand new designs to come out of the mind of Dana Krieger at Astro Studios. The name is a pointer towards the US West Coast, whose time zone is 8 hours behind the UTC or the universal standard time. Krieger sees the watches as a perfect homage to the design and style of the west coast, and towards the very understanding of time.
Tokyoflash watches are more famous for using strange means to tell time, rather than laying it straight. That happens to be the USP of Tokyoflash watches, and we’d hate to see them going any other way. Their latest watch comes by the name of Kisai Seven and very cleverly incorporates design cues from Tron in the shape of two pulsing LED rings that could be blue or white and come with three animation presets. They are currently selling the watch at $99, though the price will soon go up to $139.
New York based company Nooka has come up with a new timepiece that is so simple, it looks beautiful. It comes with a silicone strap and remarkably minimalistic display that features time, date, alarm and chronograph functions. Priced at $375.

Inspired by the Mediterranean setting, designers at Bulgari have created a watch that pays homage to the same. Available in rose gold, white gold and multicolor models, the watches have their face covered with a slide-able disk that speaks of Mediterranean architecture. The cover on the rose gold model is paved with a pearl, while the white gold variant uses pearls along with a generous sprinkling of diamonds, and the multicolor model uses diamonds and other stones like amethyst, tourmaline, citrine, peridot and topaz.
Going on the concept of what a watch would be like, if they used their skill a century ago, MB&F created the Legacy Machine No. 1. Kicking off a new line dedicated to horology in the 18th and 19th century, the LM1 shows a classic line and a domed look.
