If you’re trying to communicate with your mothership to arrange transportation home (or give yourself a migraine), the only wristwatch that’s likely to do the job is a number from Tokyoflash. Back here on planet Earth, we have slightly more mundane needs. Namely the fact that a, it needs to tell the time and b, it needs to look good. If it just so happens to do those two things while looking like it’s science fiction, all the better. Nixon’s newest watch The Genie delivers on all counts. The bezel rotates to change the mode of the watch (yeah, we’re sick of all the buttons too), including getting it into Magic 8-ball mode. Is this the coolest silicone watch on the market right now? Reply hazy, but signs point to yes.
