Watches are becoming more and more elaborate and outrageous. Some watches are hardly telling the time anymore, but whether it's digitized zippers or faceless, these fashion timepieces are design heaven. The 'Time of the Sky' watch by Ryohei Yoshiyuki is a perfect example of an eye-catching timepiece.
Instead of the previous model, this 'Time of the Sky' watch is designed and programmed to display the different colors of the sky every few seconds. Collaborating with media artist Tomoya Kahimada the watch also shows the sun or moon's colors in the display which indicates the hours direction.Additional Photo Credits:
