Touchscreens are the wave of the future present. Gadgets with buttons? Soooo 1980. Watches are no different. The Mutewatch is a touch sensitive, wearable piece of technical badassery. Tap the flat surface of the watch and the hidden screen appears – as if from no where. Change the time and switch functions (timer, clock, alarm) with the same motions you’re already comfortable with: swipe and pinch. It’s svelte, comes in three colors (white, grey and red), and charges with standard USB. James Bond sexiness that’s straight out of Q’s gadget lab.
