Designed by Gennady Martynov and Emre Cetinkoprulu, the Zoomin Watch is a unique analog watch. The hour and minute hands are replaced by mini magnifying glasses, which makes reading the time as easy as a digital watch. Too bad, it is only a concept at this moment. [Yanko]
The Ventura SPARC MGS uses a micro-generator to power a digital display. Wrist movements feed an accumulator providing power to the high-performance microprocessor. According to the company, throughout an average day the wearer’s movements will turn an oscillating mass about 4,000 times. Using a set of connecting gears, these rotations are used to repeatedly tension a spring. Every time the spring is fully tensioned, it releases its force to a built-in micro-generator which generates electricity for the watch. The Ventura Sparc GS is priced at between $3,000 to $4,000 each. [Ventura]
