When sitting on the wrist, the 'Volt' faceless LED watch appears to be a [sporty bracelet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-silver-edition) or a piece of weaponry from the future. Its angled design and sleek surfaces give it a [Sci-Fi appearance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-citizen-rebel-starfighter-boxed-set) that is simultaneously manly and nerdy.

Turned on, a chevron-shaped stripe lights up with LED lights to display a digital rendering of the time, giving the wearer a clear idea of the hour without having to interpret any cryptic symbols. This angled screen also performs a mini light show with stripes of red, blue or white color moving across in flashy patterns.

The 'Volt' faceless LED watch is sleek enough to suit casual to formal attire and its chromatic coating will appeal to men who like accessories with a [futuristic twist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vostra-vector).
