The Cybertrek watch, in appropriately heavy metal, has no numbers on its diamond-patterned face, but uses a series of blue and red lights to tell time. From Gadgets and Gizmos, who do this sort of thing.

We look at this watch and wonder if Neo himself delivered it. Time will tell. Integrated chain-link wristband band is 8” long. Replacement batteries available from us right here on this very website.
