The Nooka Xon is a conceptual timepiece designed to let people "wear time in a fashionable manner," according to designers. The Nooka Xon was designed by Indian design student Jaineel Shah of the DSK ISD International School of Design. The Xon is a cylindrical time tracker with a small hole through the top. The hole allows wearers to loop the Nooka Xon through a lanyard or attach in onto a keyring.
This small hole and the Nooka Xon's unique shape free people from having to constantly look at their wrists to tell time. It also turns the watch into a completely different type of fashion accessory; one that can be worn around the neck or one that can subtly slide onto a keyring.
Wristwatch beware, your days may be numbered!
