Hi,

Thought you may like to see a pair of novelty radio/calculator watches I have. They’re both rather fugly and bulky to wear on a regular basis, but are feature-packed, in particular the Zeon (on the left), which also features world time zones, selectable by the front panel dial buttons, in addition to FM radio and 8-digit calculator.

The black watch was a cheapy from E-bay - only about ?4, from Hong Kong and has no brand name! The radios sound surprisingly good on these.

Great shots, look at the work gone into the Zeon. Could you do me a couple of close ups of the front and PM me so I can add them to the site. Fugly ROCKS!


I think that Zeon may have also come with a calculator.

Thanks, Adam - PM sent.

Goes to show what can be churned out in a Chinese sweat-shop! 😉

Having done factory work repairing shoddily-assembled radio transceivers, I know how tricky building those must have been.
