You know, there are some products that even when you see them for the second or third time, you can't quite help but cross your eyes, not knowing what they are. That's exactly how it was with the watches from Tokyoflash Japan, namely two of them (never could remember the model names) that two friends bought a couple of years ago, and I have to admit that I didn't understand anything when I first saw them, not even the fact they were actually watches.

Now, the company came up with a really nice concept that you can see above and to the left, for avid consumers of Facebook and Twitter, allowing them to receive their updates directly to their wrists. This conceptual watch packs built-in Bluetooth so users will be able to pair it with a smartphone, so that any notification received will be instantly displayed by the watch.

That is definitely an overkill if you consider just the social networking websites, but when thinking about this could aid hearing / speaking impaired people to keep contact faster, as well as for businessmen and businesswomen to read emails as soon as they arrive, without having to mingle with their smartphones every time while in a meeting, and enabling them to discern if the email is important enough to take their phone out and reply.

Further to its versatility, this even allows users to browse through recent updates and notifications, by pressing the buttons on it. Last but not least, the time reading is just as simple (or just as complicated) as the other watches from this manufacturer, namely by adding the blocks - there are 12 blocks for hours, five blocks for groups of 10 minutes and single minutes 1-9. By the way, this can also display world time and date. Made of stainless steel, the design of this concept will easily suit anyone, either contrasting or blending.
