Quadtec

Juniper Foo | Oct 31, 2006

How weird is this? A watch that tells time backwards. There's an almost Mayan undercurrent to the Quadtec timepiece; the former does a countdown to some doomsday 2012 date on its calendar. In this case, rather than tell you how much time has passed, the Quadtec instead displays how many hours you have left to the day. If you ask us, this sorta messes with your mind, like is the bottle half empty or half full? Still, it's great for time-challenged pals who keeping you fuming for always being late at the movies or dinners, and particularly for those who have no concept at all of time. And, hey, what do you know? Only 8 hours left ticking to the workday.
