Another day, another crazy Tokyoflash watch. This model, called the Satellite, comes in black and white and separates the hours, minutes, and seconds into zones. It costs $94 and comes with a fancy rubber band. It recharges via USB. The lights spin every 15 minutes and are activated by a button on the side. The LEDs come in Blue or Green.

Easy to read at a glance, Satellite’s display separates elements of time into distinct zones.
Hours are displayed in the upper zone in the same position as hours on a clock, groups of five minutes are displayed in the lower left zone in the same position as minutes on a clock and four single minutes are shown in the lower right zone.
After touching the button, lights showing the current time will flash for a short time to direct you. For more information, take a look at the diagram above and video below.
