Nooka seems to be heavily promoting the fact that their new Zaz watch allows your own skin tone to show through thanks to a transparent LCD display. But hopefully they’ll realize that the nifty design is more then enough to sell the timepiece, since I don’t think anyone, anywhere at anytime has lamented the fact they couldn’t see their skin through the watch they were wearing.
The time is displayed via your typical pseudo-confusing grid of blocks and a series of dashes, though it doesn’t actually appear to be that hard to decipher, and you’ll have your choice of a black or white leather or silver mesh band to complement the silver face. $380, available for pre-order now from Watchismo.

OK, I actually read the description on their website too…
Time is marked with a display similar to the Zenv style, with blocks appearing on the transparent screen seemingly as a part of the wearer’s wrist.
Yes, they appear right on your wrist! With a giant obtrusive white band and chrome frame around them! It’s magic! :-/ I’m done.

$380 to see my skin? lol nah, I think I'll pass and just take my watch off at night and go, look my skin is still there, who would have guessed.
But what about the skin under then band, why didn't they use a clear plastic? I can't see the skin under the BAND! oh noes…
