Kisai Optical Illusion Touchscreen Watch from Tokyoflash Japan

Here's another of those arty watches from Tokyoflash Japan.  The Kisai Optical Illusion Watch has a touchscreen for accessing the four main functions.  Like those optical illusion posters from years ago, the time display is buried in a pattern of high-resolution digital lines.  Once you've trained your eyes, you'll be able to see the time.  Until you've trained them, or perhaps if you never do,  there's a button that clears up the background lines when touched.  The Optical Illusion is a limited-edition watch with a mineral crystal lens with either a natural or green face and a stainless band and clasp available in silver or black.  The watch is $199, but it's available for $179 with free shipping until Friday January 27th, 2012 at 11:30 am (Japan time).

Google Android Wristwatch

Google offers in its online store an “Android” wristwatch. Well, do not be fooled by the name. As much as you wish for an Android-powered wristwatch that could make you shoot a bunch of angry birds, this watch only features Android logos on its face. Despite that letdown, this working timepiece costs a fraction of an actual Android-powered wristwatch. These watches are made by Modify, known for letting users swap the actual clock into different wristbands. This mix-and-match feature also goes to Google's Android watch. These Google-branded wristwatches are available for $59.95, but you better hurry because only nine small ones (measuring 9.5 inches tip to tip) remain in stock as of this writing.
