The Adjust concept watch is a concept watch designed to tell time using a series of triangles. The watch was created by Nico NL1, the same design studio that conceptualized the awesome black hole-inspired SF View.

The Adjust concept watch has 32 triangles each lit up by an LED light. Above the LEDs lie a color filter that can be switched out to instantly change the look of your watch. The watch is a little tough to read, with the shape of the triangles representing the straight lines of numbers. Still, with a little practice the watch could become a breeze to understand. The Adjust concept watch is a submission into the [Tokyoflash](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airo-led) Design Blog, a blog which turns designer concepts into real watches sold on Tokyoflash's website.
