Each set comes with two custom straps and a you get a choice of large watch face or small watch face. Made of stainless steel with a polycarbonate casing they're also water-resistant to 3ATM. I must admit when I first saw this I was hoping that it was actually an Android Watch Extension for your Android device The small is 9.5″ and the large is 10″ both sets being priced at $59.95 from the Google Store. |

Good Morning, Sir is Waking You Up, Classy-Style
To
many people, even the worst of news can sound better when said with a
British accent. And what worse news can you have every morning than a
blaring alarm at 5am to wake you up and get you started on your day?
Wouldn't the gentle prodding of, say, Stephen Fry help to better ease
you into your work day? ThinkGeek has answered this wish with the Good Morning, Sir (or Madam) Alarm Clock. There are over 120 sounds recorded by Stephen Fry as his character “Jeeves”, and just to give you a taste of this British wit, a sample wake up call is “It appears to be morning. Very inconvenient, I agree. I believe it is the rotation of the Earth that is to blame, Sir.” The clock will still set off an alarm to ensure you get yourself up, but you'll look forward to a confirmation by Jeeves once you shut it off, such as “Madam has a firm touch. But very fair.” The clock base is made of wood, not plastic, with the clock face similar to the above shot for the “Sir” version, and having little pink flowers on it for “Madam”. It's implied on the ThinkGeek description of “Sir” that you may be able to toggle between the Sir and Madam recordings if frilly pink flowers aren't your style. Both models run on 4AA batteries. Good Morning, Sir can be purchased through ThinkGeek for $69.99. |

Manifold Clock: Telling time in 3D
This is another Kickstarter project. The Manifold Clock is a wall-mounted clock with a 30″ sweep. The hour and minute hands are joined with a flexible sheet that forms a changing 3-D shape. This “combination of simple mechanics and modern design is based on the mathematical notion of Riemann surfaces, derived from the log(z) function.” Pledge at least $45 to receive a Manifold Clock. Funding has already been exceeded, but there is still time to pledge and receive a clock. The funding period ends February 23 at 5:00 pm EST. |
