On Air Wristwatch
A Turkish designer Iskander Asanaliev presents his original transparent On Air Wristwatch. The main peculiarity of the timepiece is that it only has one hand - the hour hand.
On Air Wristwatch shows the time in an extraordinary minimal way. While LED display shows minutes in number, its position shows the current hour. Display is also functioning as a light and set button. If you push once, the LED lights up. To set the time you need just to push in the center of the display for 5 seconds and LED flashes, here you push upper or lower corner of the display to set the hour and the left and right corner to set minutes.
The On Air Wristwatch is still a concept. But the idea was appreciated by many designers and watch specialists so maybe very soon the concept will become a real timepiece – the technology allowing producing such a watch already exists. And then it will be surely a success among those who like unusual and eye-catching designer accessories.
