In spite of its name, there is nothing really horrific about the Watch Horrors timepiece. Instead, it could easily be likened to a metal gear or a ninja star. The face boasts a jagged edge that recalls both. A masculine design, to say the very least, this rugged form is complemented with exposed hardware and a dark palette of black and blue. Edgy and industrial, the Watch Horrors timepiece is also incredibly suave.
Designed by StudioAram Design, a Los Angeles-based firm founded by Aram Aroutunian, the Watch Horrors timepiece boasts a relatively minimalist face when compared to the rest of its bold body. Nevertheless, the American designer writes, "If Alienware converted into a humanoid, this is the watch it would inherit."
