Here’s a set of the most outstanding, eccentric, unusual and amazing concept designer watches in recent time. You may adore them, you may not like them. But one thing is sure – they attract your attention!

1. A bracelet-style digital watch that features a removable face, all basic multimedia functions: MP3 player, video and photo viewer, and even a recorder. Ladies and gentlemen, Swatch Infinity by Pierre Merlet:

2. Designed by Nicole Schmeidel, a student at Braunschweig University of Art, this watch is aimed at making life a little more normal for diabetics. Piezoelectricity generated by the wearer’s movements drive the insulin-delivering pumps in the watch body, which contains enough of the drug for two to three weeks.

3. Adam Huffman’s Colbalt OLED Touchscreen Bluetooth Pocket Watch Concept. Featuring voicemail, email, texting capabilities and integrated Bluetooth connectivity, this gadget is like a time telling for 21st century genleman.

4. The Shine: well the name says for itself. The watch is encrusted with over 200 square cut white topaz gemstones and fit with a touch-sensitive laser system. That is the occasion where nobody cares if it tells the right time or not.

5. John Pszeniczny’s Luna Watch is an extremely stylish concept. Made of crystal, stainless steel and a spessartine garnet, this watch will surely accentuate your style and personality. To tell time touch the two contact points and the time seems to magically float inside the crystal. Magnificent

6. Lv Zhogfang’s Oled concept watch. When not touched the display just shows irregularly placed dots, but when you tap on it or shake the watch, the dots rearrange into a analogue interface. Looks impressive

7. Once again John Pszeniczny. This time it’s a F1/Carbon GMT concept – automobile themed watch. The digital display shows the time at any of the 18 race tracks on the 2008 Formula One calendar. Like a real F1 racecar, the watch is made of carbon fiber, metal and rubber. Some rubies and Swarovsky also added to make it luxury.

8. Gucci released a LED watch that is positioned as a high luxury class designer watch. The screen is not exposed, but can be revealed by moving the sliding doors, which protects the flexible (yes, flexible!) screen from any damage. Looks splendid.

9. This one is for the ladies. The I/O concept featuring a cuff bracelet design with a hidden digital clock that lights up only when you need to tell the time, all you need is to touch the dot. There’s more of a fashion accessory than of a watch.

What do people collect? They collect different things, from calendars with animals to houses on isolated islands. People’s obsessions are so different but they can open the inner world of people.
One woman collected artificial frogs. She had a special ware dedicated to her friends but she could not stand real frogs. She was practically afraid of them. By the way she was a swimming tutor. What a wired hobby, don’t you think so?

Why do people collect things?
1. some people want to live among the things they like, to be encompassed by something familiar, something that is dear to their hearts.
2. rich people on the one hand collect very expensive things on the other hand they contribute their money so that later on they may use it.
3. other people have no goals in their lives, their lives are shallow and to start fill this whole in their lives they start collecting things.
4. some people just want to stand out of crowd and start collecting things.
People can collect things that correspond to their likings. But why do people collect clocks?

Who are they, these people?

Probably they want to have one of the most precious things at hand. They want to ‘possess’ TIME. They really love and appreciate it. I think that those people who collect clock are very active and efficient. They know what they want and go strait to their aims without wasting time on different useless things. They usually keep to the date.
There are lots of sorts of collectable clock. And really good clocks are positively expensive. So collecting clocks you kill to birds with one stone.
• On one hand you collect your favorite things
• On the other hand you contribute your money to something very stable and later on you can derive a really good pot of money by selling some items of your collection.
Collectable clock will never be out-of-date as
• On the one hand clock is one of the things that can mesmerize a person and keep him spellbound.
• On the other hand ticking of clock always makes you hurry because it shows how quickly time flies away.
