Do You Have Time To Read Nooka’s Mind-Boggling Zub Zen-H 20 Watch?

Published: December 19, 2011
In the future, when your smartphone has replaced books, MP3 players, and human interaction, you won’t find watches on that list of casualties. Why? Because they’ve already long-abandoned their raison-d'être — telling time — and kept on ticking. Nooka’s mind-bogglingly inexplicable Zub Zen-H 20 watch is a prime example. Like an abacus, it reads in rows: the top two tell the hours, the third the minutes, and the fourth the seconds — as if you had the time to count all that. It gets points for its attention-getting design and rainbow of available colors. Its water-resistant polyurethane body serves as a vestigial reminder of an object drowning in its own obsolence.

the world truly has gone mad if companies are advertizing their lack of original thought
"look at us" they say, "we're stupid"...
