Lunchbreath is a Flickr contributor who happens to be an art director from Chicago. Lunchbreath has created a unique illustration called "Sixteen ways to use your wrist now that watches are obsolete."
Some of Lunchbreath's crazy inventions include the emergency oreo, starter turntables, a reserve monocle and the absurd small-game trophy mount. Although the pictures are hilarious, I think most people would rather stick with bracelets or watches on their wrists!
Implications - As for me, I wouldn't mind using a reserve monocle wristwatch any day. How else am I suppose to store something as sophisticated as a monocle? With it on my wrist, I can easily whip it out and class up a place like I was the Monopoly mascot.
