   Wow. That looks, well, really bad to be honest. As my girlfriend so succinctly put it, “It looks like a piece of junk attached to another piece of junk”. That looks like the type of bracelet that little girls in elementary school wear, because their parents don’t want to spend real money on jewelry for them yet. As for the display itself, it is also awful. It actually took me a minute to see the time, because my eyes were trying to read the shiny white crystals instead of the blue ones. Needless to say, that wasn’t getting me very far. The concept has potential, but this was an abortive effort.

   This is a beautiful concept for a sporty watch. I’d not worry if some claim it to be junk — it doesn’t look to be intended to BE bling, lol. The main concept I’d change would be to remove the center line and shrink the width to a more appealing scale — even to a circle, square or diamond. For me, the time is easy to read, and I suspect it would be easier to read at the normal viewing distance (not closeup). The band could easily be made of soft filament nylon, rayon, or polyester to avoid staining.

   I love LED concepts: we’ll be seeing thousands of similar concepts in lighting and design in the new “Green Era”…

   Overall: Crisp, clean, fresh and fun!

   I agree with both posters. It’s ugly at first, but beautiful the more you look. Briliant.

   I think its a nice idea. Would be good if the face was shrunk to the same width as the band. I like the blue lighting on white. very Nice

   Well, assuming the LED part of this LED watch is a lighted display, I don’t think you’d have much trouble reading it. Just read the lights, as you always would. Apart from that, it is rather hideous.

   I think it would look better if it was actually on someone’s wrist, but it’s still bad.

   You mix a cheap band, a modern face, and a classic display.

   Use the face with flat glass, not crystal, OR use the crystal with precious metals, OR use the nylon(?) band with all plastic. As it is, it’s just an unappealing mix of styles and materials.
