Tokyoflash Waku: LEDs and Leather, Together at Last.
For all of you who have been craving a Tokyoflash watch with a leather band, the folks at Tokyoflash Japan have answered your pleas with the Waku.
- Tokyoflash Waku
Available in your choice of black, brown or fur-covered (!) leather, each Tokyoflash Waku watch features blue, white, or multi-colored (red, yellow and green) LEDs, which flash once for the current hour (1-12), then again for the minutes (in 15 minute segments, 1-3 lights for 15, 30 and 45 minutes after the hour), and finally, once for any remaining individual minutes (1-14). The LEDs are surrounded by a black, silver or gold frame (which resembles a belt buckle). In all, there are 7 band/frame/LED color combinations.
The Tokyoflash Waku is available from Tokyoflash.com. Price (at the time of this posting): $130.77 (U.S.).

Tokyoflash Kisai Tenmetsu Watch Stops Traffic!
Tokyoflash Japan is definitely on a roll this holiday shopping season! Now they have announced the availability of the Kisai Tenmetsu watch, a tri-colored LED watch with red, yellow and green traffic lights–er, LEDs!
With either a black or silver aluminum face and band, upon the wearer’s press of a button, each watch flashes its LED sequence to display the current hour, minute(s), month and (in that order). The time is displayed in a 24-hour (i.e., “military”) format, with red LEDs equaling increments of 15 units (such as hours at or after 3 PM or minutes), yellow LEDs representing units of 5, and green LEDs displaying individual units of 1. One or two red lights flash at the top of the watch to indicate whether or not you are looking at the time (1 red light) or date (two red lights). You can additionally configure an “animation mode” to control the light show that follows the display of the time and date.
The Kisai Tenmetsu is available from Tokyoflash.com. Price (at the time of this posting): $257.32 (U.S.).*
*Thankfully, the shirt the model is wearing on Tokyoflash’s Tenmetsu product page is sold separately!
