Telling time using flowers is usually a bad idea, unless you are telling time using the Luna Watch concept. Designer Nigel Roddy has dreamed up a watch that tells time using LED flowers.
The Luna Watch concept is designed to look more like a wristband than an actual watch. The Luna Watch concept has a smooth design and a stylish blue-and-white color scheme that makes it more of a functional fashion piece than a watch. The watch tells time using the three flowers on its face. Each flower has petals that light up to tell the time. The biggest flower tells the hour, the medium-sized flower tells the first part of the minute (from 10 and higher) and the smallest flower tells the second part of the minute (from zero to nine). The watch also has an option to display the time digitally should you get sick of telling time using flowers.
