FES changes the face of time

Fashion Entertainments (FES) is a group of innovators whose goal is to reinvent ways to enjoy fashion using technology. One of its initial projects is the FES Watch, which is currently being crowd-funded on the Japanese site Makuake.

As a watch designed for aesthetics as well as functionality, the FES strap and clock face changes pattern each time the wearer moves his or her hand. To do this it uses e-paper, which is commonly used for digital books. When stationary, the watch is simply black, but move your hand to check the time and the clock face and band light up with a design. Each watch has 24 designs to choose from, and it can be set to alternate with your movements.
