Digital watches are back! I probably have not donned one myself since I was in the fifth grade, mainly due to the fact that most of them look cheap and ugly. The Digital Analog Timepiece, however, adds a little touch of class to a type of watch that is usually not aesthetically pleasing.
Designed by Josh Chadwick, the Digital Analog Timepiece has a digital interface but features all the qualities of a classic analog with a minute hand and hour hand rather than having the numbers displayed. It even comes with a snazzy little magnetic wristband. What more do you need?
