If you've always wanted an LED watch, but were never quite into the whole cyborg look, TokyoFlash's new Retsu model can satisfy your craving without swallowing your entire wrist. The new Retsu watch is just 8mm thin (or 0.31 inches) and weighs 40...
If you didn't know about it already, anyone looking to pick up a really unique and inspired watch looks no further than Tokyoflash. Barcode Black, now available to the rest of us outside of Japan, is no exception to Tokyoflash's standard of...
TokyoFlash is making a name for themselves in the watch market. These watches that they are selling look cool as hell, but are a little less than practical. This is the same company that brought us the highly anticipated equalizer watch. Now they...
Weird watchseller Tokyoflash is now shipping Kyokusen, another puzzle posing as a timepiece, and this one has a brighter digital tube LED display that gives you a wider viewing angle than ever. It's available in a variety of display colors, and...
DIY gadgeteer Nate True has come up with a home-brew LED watch alternative to those Tokyoflash wristwatches that are all the rage. A mashup of a binary clock and one of those nifty persistence-of-vision displays, Nate's device even packs in a...
At first glance, Tokyoflash's Geomesh watch is an indecipherable mess that looks like a fragmented traffic light. Upon further review, and a glance at the instruction manual, the Geomesh becomes less intimidating and its retro-future awesomeness...
Feeding our clock jones is this Zero-G watch from Tokyoflash, showing you the time of day with an LCD that mimics the hands of an analog timepiece. Strangers won't have a clue about what time it is, but all it takes is a glance at that...
I don't know, man. These things are just getting annoying. I love TokyoFlash and all, but is there just some guy hunched over a big watchmaker's table dreaming up ways to piss off the people who want to read your watch?
When the writers of Gizmodo aren't diving into our Duck Talesesque sea of gold, we "spend" it. And we say "spend" because it's basically just throwing our money away on random items that offer us a really enjoyable week of just checking them out -...
Our pals over at Tokyoflash have given us the scoop on their newest, ultra-chic watch model. The new design, which will go by the Tibida moniker, boasts 42 white LEDs in its display. Sure, it looks completely outrageous, but we have come to expect...
One thing I have in common with the Japanese is their love and respect for the red LED. While every other product these days has a shining blue blinder shining somewhere within, the subtle warmth of the red LED still finds its way into products...
Tokyo Flash has been kind enough to give you, the readers, the chance to win your choice of one of their unique watches. Here is what you need to do to win:
The Biohazard Watch ($138) by TokyoFlash is another one of those watches that can't be read by the uninitiated, but this one takes that gag a step further, pretending to probe for alien DNA and displaying a threat level of possible alien invasion.
TokyoFlash specializes in difficult accessories and the EleeNo G watch is no exception. The G, as the site helpfully explains, does not stand for Gangsta. No, it stands for Graphic. To read the watch requires a degree in physics and a background...
Tokyoflash just posted the Ultra-Violet Watch by Infinity. It's a unique quartz timepiece that will look incredible after two tabs of acid. The watch uses two effects—day-glo hands and the "infinite mirror" trick to create a trippy amalgam....
Evincing the fondest memories of KIT from Knight Rider, the TS100 from Cyber Punk is an LED watch featuring a mirrored face and several different scrolling effects on its LED grid. The grid consists of 90 LEDs, and when you press the button they...
Style takes a 1980s, Chernobyl-era backseat with the Radio Active watch from Active Reactor in Japan. Perfect for those who believe that the time on their wrist should be a closely-guarded secret, the watch proves to have a bit of a learning...
Citizen has taken the futristic route with the ITX21-5014 watch from their Independent line. Behind the machine-like watch hands is a green LCD, turned 90 degrees to the left, that displays the digital date, time, alarms, chronographs and timers....
TokyoFlash, everyone's favorite super-nerd watch designers, have a new offering: the BPM Watch. What makes it unique is the sweet BPM counter that can detect how many beats per minute the music you're listening to has.
TokyoFlash brings you The Scope, an LCD display watch that achieves new levels of geeky-cool, but how difficult does time-telling have to be before it gets to be just goofy?
There were well more than 100 entries in this remix competition—and picking the winner was a tough tough decision. It's clear that the challenge of making music based on the sound of Hitachi hard drives failing was as much a reason to take...
Here's another one of those cryptic watches that make you guess what time it is, the JLr7 by e35 whose little J and L-shaped LEDs seem to light up at random. Even its name seems arbitrary, but check out the top row of LEDs and you'll see: JLr7....
Eleeno's Radar Watch is awesome because at first glance, you'd never expect it to function as a watch. But the interface is quite simple; minute hand on the outside, hour hand on the inside, and the radar grid conveniently divides the circle into...

We talked about the C version a few days ago but I think I like the B Version better. It's much cooler and comes in blue, green, and red. Priced at 8900 yen, which is like a million dollars$80 in American money, i4u has a special deal that gets...
If you demand another totally unreadable watch, this is for you. The Twelve 5-9 Version G watch is the latest monstrosity from TokyoFlash. You tell the time via the 27 precision cut holes in the metal timepiece. How, you ask? The top grid...
The deadline is past. Thank you for sending all your remixes.
The Futurist golden watch certainly seems to be going along with the retro design trend Casio's been exploring recently. The LA-2002G wouldn't look out of place on the wrist of any Bond villain of yesteryear, we think. Inside that matte gold case...
