    Phosphor has just announced a new world time/dual timezone model, the World Time Sport. The company is well-known for their e-ink watches (we reviewed a few here) and this one uses a touch interface to scroll through multiple timezones as well as various screens including a dual-time screen for travelers.

    The limitations of e-ink make it hard to add features like stopwatches and timers, which can get frustrating for sports fans, but this watch is a bit more rugged than the current e-ink line up and comes in three colors, orange, black, and white.

    It’s available for pre-order now for $80 and will ship in December.
