iPod Nano Watch - TikTok & Lunatik
By Felix | Category pictures , video
There are many special accessories for Apple products like iPod, iPhone, iPad and Co. Nix. Here we want but let's imagine a gadget that is truly extraordinary: the wristwatch models for the iPod nano. Here, the reflection of what makes Apple so successful. Beautiful design, simple functionality, build quality.
The principle is quite simple: you have an iPod nano and would like to make a watch. You buy one of the two clocks and frames uses the iPod. Nice detail: the sides of the iPod remain open, here you can approach the connections to the device, for example, to charge or to play new music.
The costs are also within the scope:
- small model TikTok: $ 34.95 + $ 15.00 shipping to Germany
- large model Lunatik: $ 69.95 + $ 15.00 shipping to Germany
But not only the product itself is interesting, but also the history. Entirely in the Philosophy of the Digital Native generation, the young company has a crowd-funding model with kick starter used. The aim was to generate $ 15,000 within 30 days. Now the project is just under one million (!!!) U.S. dollars.
Now back to frame the two clocks. Lunatik has created a nice video on this, here you have hers:
And now a few more pictures:

A senior Navy employee named Rob from the U.S. (eBay name: bobles85) this year has seen a nice Christmas surprise. An old Rolex Clock, which he wanted to sell for a few dollars to raise money for Christmas gifts, he has earned $ 66 100!
Kwajalein Atoll
In 1968, he has worked on the Kwajalien Atoll on a navy outpost and during that time, the Rolex Clock gegönngt. These he then wore every day for all 42 years, but decided earlier this decade, they put away. After he had almost forgotten, much to him during the search for funding for Christmas again, and he put them on Ebay for $ 9.95 (!!!) one. He only became aware of the auction, when they surprised a few days later he was already at 30,000 over $ what for him was also the time to research something in more detail.
James Bond Rolex Submariner
As it turned out, the Clock was identical to the model that James Bond in Dr. No, Goldfinger and Thunderball had worn. This clock is like the Holy Grail for watch collectors, which manifested itself in the pleasingly high final sale price: it was $ 66,100! For the skeptics: Here is the link to the auction .
I think: Well done, now it should also work well with the Christmas!

"Green" Watch Design: The Rasenuhr
By Felix | Category Pictures
The gentlemen Castiglione Morelli and Francesco Tommaso Ceschi have a nice idea for those Uhrliebhaber, Moeche waive the batteries at the Clock: The Clock Timeless Garden. She reminds me a little 80's to the little radio in the kits. Man could connect them to a piece of fruit, from which they name their electricity to power the radio with energy.
This watch concept, the energy is drawn from the soil, for the simple LED display should be enough. Have fun!

The Clock is water resistant to 3 atmospheres, by the way, however, repeated dives probably not good for fine leather strap.
Here are the exact specifications:
Manufacturer: Chronoswiss
Model: Wristmaster
Watch set in the form of a wristwatch
Reference: CH 2703 master wrist (watch set)
CH 2803 Wrist timer (normal clock)
