Rogue Touch Pocket Watch Combines Retro With The Future

Here we go again! Let’s tap into my fanatic side and look at watches for a second. I am a huge fan of watches, and I can’t for the life of me stop my constant search for the most awesome watches you could ever think of. It’s a hobby that rules my life sometimes, like really. I find watches to be the perfect accessory for guys since there isn’t much else we can wear that falls into the category of accessories. Today when there is literally an innovation peak when it comes to watches, it’s sometimes hard to keep up with it all and stay fresh and updated on what’s cool, geeky and stylish. But that should of course not keep us from trying, right?

This new watch from Tokyoflash is one that is just beyond magnificent. I read a review on UFunk which featured this Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch, and as soon as I saw it, I was sold. Not only is it awesomely retro, it also fuses that retroness with the future in such a smart way that it’s almost seamlessly done. The watch, visualized as an 1800th century romantic upper class slingshot pocket watch, comes with a touch dial interface on which you can do pretty much everything.

Change the light, time, date, alarm and a whole lot of other cool things just by using the touch-enabled screen. This is definitely one watch to have if you want to feel like an upper class tradesman from the 1800th century with a futuristic edge. This one will set you back $169, but it will give you so much more in return. Not only is it visually stunning, but the user interface seems to be just the right one for a watch in this format. All you really need to get if you decide to go for this one is a black top hat. Now, where can we find that…
