Give the gift of binary digits, hey it beats a sundial
Binary watches. Yep, watches that show the current time using LEDs instead of hands or chunky digital numbers.
Made by 1HE 0NE (that’s “The One” for those who can;t quite read nerd-type), the watches range in price from $79 to $199, depending on the style and deals you can find online. On the less expensive side is the Samui Moon with a stainless steel case and band. The outside LEDs illuminate to show the hours (8-4-2-1) and minutes (32-16-8-4-2-1). At the higher end is the Kerala Trance with a stainless steel case and leather band. In all they offer seven styles, including the Ibiza Ride ($159) which looks more like the volume meter on your stereo than a watch face.
These watches make telling time in a dark movie theater even easier and have the added bonus of being all shades of nerdy.
