NEWS WATCHES

Click DIP Switch & Turn Switch, Circuit Board Style Watches
Computer nerds take notice, this might be the new watch for you. Newer timepiece brand Click offers two fun models called the DIP Switch and Turn Switch watches to satisfy the need you have to express yourself on your wrist. The idea of the watches is to capture the glory of early circuit boards from the 1980s. Still, these watches don’t look entirely unlike many circuit boards of today. Done well, these are a great way to positively geekify your day.Click watches come in a squarish steel case that is engraved with a circuit board map motif and text (varies depending on the model). The watch cases are 42mm tall and 35mm wide (pretty medium sized watch). The pattern is nicely continued on the border around the negative LCD screen. Colors for all the models include brushed or black IP coated cases, and color trim in black, blue, green and red. Between the DIP Switch and Turn Switch models with all the color options, there are a ton of Click watch variants available.
