# Ingenious LED Wristwatches The Division Furtive Type 50 Has a Unique Appearance By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2014-10-22 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/division-furtive-type-50 References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/division-furtive-type-50/34335/) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/divisionfurtive/division-furtive-type-50-limited-edition-wrist-wat/) The Division Furtive Type 50 is a fabulous wristwatch, created by Division Furtive, that looks great and has innovative features. It is described as being "not wearable technology, but a technological art form." The watch displays two rows of [white LEDs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unimatic-modello-cinque-unilight), with the top row keeping track of hours and the bottom row staying on top of the minutes. Interestingly, the Division Furtive Type 50 is powered by standard AAA batteries, which helps prevent the watch from becoming obsolete. This watch also has [no buttons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dw5000r), and requires users to tap on the screen to scroll between functions. Design Furtive is currently running a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-invaders-my-play-watch) campaign to crowdfund the Type 50's production. A pledge of $295 will get you set up with one of the thousand units that will be produced if the campaign meets its fundraising target. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/watches) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **LED Wristwatches:** Opportunity for innovative designs and functionalities using LED technology in wristwatches. - **Wearable Technology:** The rise of wearable technology offers opportunities to integrate smart functionalities in wristwatches. - **Crowdfunding Campaigns:** Crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter provide an opportunity for watchmakers to raise funds and gauge market demand for innovative products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Accessories:** Incorporating LED technology in wristwatches can disrupt the fashion accessories industry. - **Electronics Manufacturing:** The demand for LED wristwatches can create growth opportunities for electronics manufacturing companies. - **Crowdfunding Platforms:** Crowdfunding platforms can benefit from the success of innovative wristwatch campaigns, attracting more projects and backers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Angular Automobile-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/benly-design-s3000-cyber-watch.md) - [Futuristic Space-Themed Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amida.md) - [Nostalgic Nixie Tube Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/btf-nixie-watch.md) - [Robotic-Themed Retro Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airo-led.md) - [Laser Tag-Inspired Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-timepiece.md) - [Sleek Magnetic Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triarch.md) - [Liquid Droplet DIY Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/droplet-watch.md) - [Kinetic Art Wristwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/type-8-daniel-engelberg.md) - [Futuristic Timepiece Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gen10.md)
