Designers *Robin Lapo Bigio* & *Olivero Zanon* have come up with an [ultra-feminine watch design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-gshock-gmap2125w6a) that emphasizes the accessory factor and hides the technology, resulting in the perfect fashion watch for the modern girl.

The â€œi/oâ€ concept is designed as a [cuff bracelet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-crw0011jr) with a glossy mirror surface finish that only allows light through from underneath, and a hidden digital clock. When not in use the i/o shows just a simple digital dot. When you want to use it, simply touch the dot and the time appears.
