If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Form Function Form has some serious admirers because a certain Kickstarter project ripped off their Button-Stud Weekender design wholesale. Rather than supporting an obvious charlatan (we’ve always wanted to have a reason to use that in a sentence), buy the original from Form Function Form. The process is really quite simple. Pick one of 4 Timex Weekender faces and one of 13 strap options (chromexcel, shell cordovan or veg tan in a bunch of colors), then wait for your watch to show up in the mail. The watch straps on to your wrist with a button stud (hence the name) positioned on either side of your wrist. No more taking your watch off at your desk, screwing up the buckle or exacerbating keyboard carpal tunnel. It’s an innovation that is as brilliant and good looking as it is simple.
