Coaching Exercise Watch

Not everyone is born the committed athlete, some of us need a push or two to really get going on our workout program.  For me it usually needs to be a really hard shove to get me going.  After you are finally getting into it you want to make sure that you’re actually getting something out of it.  This watch will let you know when you need to push yourself a little harder.

The initial assessment test figures up your overall fitness, maximum oxygen uptake and resting heart rate.  Then while you’re working out it’ll let you know if you need to ease up or push it harder.  It’ll also show your average heart rate, the time you’ve been going and your kcal consumption.    It’ll also let you know if your daily goal was actually met.  You can purchase it with a telemetry strap that goes around your chest for $149.95.  Just pick it up through Hammacher Schlemmer.

Tocky Alarm Clock bounces away

You might remember Clocky, an alarm clock that rolls away and hides the moment it goes off.  Which leaves you to run off and chase it down before you can shut it down.  Well apparently this is Clocky’s tech saavy brother.  Instead of rolling away, this hops off of your nightstand and rolls away.  Just like Clocky you’ll be stuck chasing it down in order to make the alarm stop.

This clock even has a built-in microphone so that you can record your own sounds to wake up with.  It means college students can still wake up to the sound of their mother’s voice.  If you really don’t want to feel that close to your mother you can also upload MP3s to it.  Tocky comes in orange, aqua, kiwi and white.  For a little extra cash you can get a skin 2 pack for the clock.  You can purchase it for $79 through Nanda Home.

Mutewatch does show the time

Although the Mutewatch may appear to either be some furturistic concept or merely something given to convicts on their way out into the free world, it’s actually a watch.  It is a fully functioning watch that will be perfectly easy to learn to use.  Not only is this ninja of a watch easy to use, but it’s actually up for sale.  That is you can at least add your name to a list of those waiting for their watch to get out of the pre-sale stage.

The Mutewatch is as silent as the name states.  It doesn’t tick away and it even has a silent alarm.  Instead of beeping out loud like a normal alarm this one just vibrates your wrist.  Then on the face of the watch it keeps things plain up until you swipe across the face to activate the screen.  These come in white, gray or even red.  You just need to pick it up for €199 or about $260.

Mr. Clock tells time, only when you look at it

Mr.Clock_Hye-yeon.park_Design Product_2010 RCA from hye-yeon.park on Vimeo.

We are no stranger to very cool clocks here on Coolest Gadgets. We just covered the Alessi Blank Wall Clock yesterday.

This clock is just as personal, but not in the sense that you can draw on it. As you can see in the video, the clock will only show the time when people are looking at it.

Granted, I have no idea how it knows whether or not anyone is looking at it, but it will give the correct time. If you aren’t looking at it, you will see nothing but some incongruous lines.

Mr. Clock is designed by Hye-Yeon Park, and it is supposed to be an art project. I suppose it asks the question of whether or not time happens when we are not looking at clocks. I suppose this is why we look at a clock, because without them, it is all lines.

Of course, if art asked a distinct question, and then gave the answer, would it still be art? Well, I will leave that one up to you.

Perhaps Hye-Yeon Park’s next project should be a television set that shows random patterns when you aren’t watching it. Unless you think the stuff that they show on television is random enough.

Alessi Blank Wall Clock

If you’re a serious doodler, then you need all sorts of surfaces to perfect your art on.  Thankfully there are those committed to making strange clocks that allow for you to scribble all over to your heart’s content.  One of which is this Alessi clock that even comes with its very own magic marker.  Life just wouldn’t be the same without a full set of magic markers.  If you’re feeling particularly wild, you could even go out and purchase some multi-colored markers.

The whole clock is completely blank and even the hands feature a bright white design.  On the clock you can doodle your numbers however you choose.  Be it roman numerals, spelling it out or just using a tally chart.  Either way you’ll have plenty of options on drawing it out.  Unfortunately though, the clock will actually cost you a whole lot of cash.  To pick one up it’ll cost you $155 through Alessi.

Spy Clock helps you keep tabs at home when you’re absent in body

Are you suspicious that the tap at home keeps on leaking, and the handyman who drops by is beefier than Mr. America? Well, you might want to make sure the missus isn’t two-timing you behind your back then with the help of the £79.99 Spy Clock (surely that is much cheaper than hiring a private investigator, although a device such as a Spy Clock certainly needs a whole lot more providence to catch someone in the act). This might just be one of the smartest spy gadgets around, looking pretty classy to be placed anywhere in your home while holding an almost-invisible video camera with a motion and sound detector, ready at any opportunity to snap a photo which might lead to incriminating evidence. If its 4GB capacity isn’t up to your liking, you can always expand it further with another microSD memory card. All photos can be transferred over to your computer when no one’s looking via USB.

Banclock gets an update

It used to be that the Banclock was just a big square block.  Instead of going that route, now you can buy one that has a little more of that classic alarm clock feel.  Sure, it is just as evil as the original by forcing you to pay up those hard earned coins every time you want a little extra sleep.  Yet at least it looks cute while it’s sucking you dry of all of your change.

The clock will start chiming by the dollar sign banging against the twin bells.  To get it to sleep for a little while you’ll have to pop a coin into the top.  If you run out of change you’ll just have to crawl out of bed to make all of that noise stop.  It runs on 2 AA batteries, which are not included.  Plus the clock comes in pink, black and white.  You can purchase it for $55 through the Japan Trend Shop.

Flip Clock spells it out

Clocks are full of all sorts of numbers, which does the job perfectly fine.  Except that it’s pretty boring to always read time the same old way.  Instead of just glancing at numbers, you can read the words.  It’s the perfect gift for the wordsmith or scholar in your life.  After all, normal clocks are much better suited for the mathematicians of the world that actually enjoy staring at numbers.

The clock states things in 5 minute intervals.  It states things like “five to three” and “three o’ clock”.  It just flips through all of those words to give you the proper time.  It only comes in the black shown here, so hopefully you’re a fan of black and white.  Unfortunately getting everything spelled out for your comes at a cost.  You can purchase the Flip Clock – Time Talks for £299.00 or about $454 through Rockett St George.

Chalkboard Watch filled with math

Instead of hiding your nerdy love for math, show it off on your wrist for all the world to see.  This watch makes math look exactly like it always should.  White chalky scratches on a green chalkboard.  It can remind you of the good old days of sitting in the classroom with that classic chalk smell always lingering in the air.

The rest of the watch looks pretty normal, just your classic black band.  The hands of the watch itself  are pretty normal too, although they do mimic pieces of chalk just a little bit.  These watches were created as a limited edition series designed by Rolf Sachs.  Unfortunately that was a long while ago and it’s not obvious on the site if they even still create these watches.
