The Lunar Eclipse Hybrid Watch concept by Priyanshu Jaiswal is a fusion design that draws elements of a smartwatch with analog components as well. The concept is defined by its circular screen which makes space for an analog structure. This is inspired by the divisive notch or cutout that is seen on smartphone screens.
This smartwatch also has a mechanical watch in the middle of the hole rather than where a camera would usually be implemented. This section is still a full screen but the middle is rendered untouched. The other details that round out the Lunar Eclipse concept watch are the icons and text that decorate around the order with options to have them animated.
