Cyclopean Watch Chargers

The WatchMe Apple Watch Charging Dock Looks Like a Cute Little Creature

— September 2, 2015 — Tech
Designer Vivian Muller created these elegant Apple watch charging docks called WatchMe that cleverly look like miniature cyclopses once the watch is resting on them. The whimsical design of these chargers adds an adorable little character to any home decor.

The WatchMe docks are designed to look like round little cartoon bodies that come in a variety of colors, such as bright yellow or pastel pink. The dock stands upright and once an Apple watch has been placed sideways onto the head of the creature, a large white eye appears on the screen turning the dock into a quirky cyclops. These docks are charming to look at and might remind you of the popular Minion characters from the Despicable Me films.
