This is a pretty sweet little wristwatch. I’m sure our watch aficionados will sniff at its crude mechanisms and lack of dials, but there ain’t nothing wrong with having a few concept watches around for special occasions. I’ve got a double-eagle one for when I attend the Eastern European mob meetings down on Pine.

This one is for the photographer who’s too good for regular numbers. Instead, you get a set of common f-numbers indicating the hour, or approximating it, anyway. This might actually be more difficult to read than watches with no numbers at all.

Eh! At $36 it’s not much of an investment, and might make a fun stocking stuffer for the photographer in your life.
