F1/Carbon GMT Watch

Posted on April 29, 2008 Under Gadgetry

Ever since Back to The Future, Part II, our vision of things to come have always involved inventions like shoes that could tie themselves and hoverboards. That changed when we took a look at the conceptual design for the F1/Carbon GMT watch by designer John Pszeniczny. This Formula One Racing inspired digital watch is constructed of Swarovski crystal, carbon fiber, metal, and rubber, which makes it look more like a flux capacitor than a wristwatch. It also contains 18 rubies that representing the 18 cities on the F1 circuit, from Britain to Bahrain, and can tell each city’s local time. The watch is still a prototype, but we’re hoping they start rolling out with a consumer model some time in the…er…future.
