Button Up A Watch This Winter
Its winter and just when your hands get warm and cozy in your gloves; you get this itch to see the time. In a normal situation you would just ask someone else for the time and ignore the watch on your wrist (under the gloves). But I’m not here to relate a normal situation! Allow me to introduce you to the idea of a Button watch. A teeny-tiny clip-on that clips to your jacket or bag and tells you the time on a need-to-know-basis.
Click the face once and it displays the time and date on the glass face for a few seconds.
- Solar battery panels harness electricity for the display. (Sunny days in winter are few and far between, but in summers you could wear this for the fad-quotient).
- Many of us depend upon our phones to note the time, and since touchscreen phones act weird with gloved fingers, this button watch would be a cute solution.

Or you could make this out of a real watch movement, with a battery and a clip, for $20 instead of several hundreds for a circular LCD with a tiny solar panel behind it. Or if you still want to be “greener” even than this concept use a self-winding mechanical movement for still less than $100. Guess I just don’t get it.
