Somewhat cool, definitely not for me...but I wonder how it works in bright daylight? The partial vendor description may explain:
"Biegert & Funk presents the world‘s first wristwatch in words. The Qlocktwo watch does not show the time with hands or digits. Time is indicated on this purist watch as readable text, turning it into a statement: “It is half past nine”. The square watch face has a uniform grid of 110 letters. When the button is pressed, words light up in unexpected places which describe the time. The words also take double duty indicating the date and seconds in a way that has to be seen to be appreciated."
