Unlike anything you've seen before, TokyoFlash takes the concept of the wrist watch and blasts it decades into the future. Utilizing smooth steel, LED lighting patterns, and out-of-this-world designs, the Tokyo Flash line of watches are the ultimate conversation piece!

TokyoFlash Biohazard watches simulate a science-fiction atmosphere...in a time when alien invasion is imminent, TokyoFlash develops the Biohazard watch as a precautionary measure. Seeking out alien DNA, your TokyoFlash Biohazard tells the time by counting out a colored DNA helix design. With a press of a button, this TokyoFlash watch literally "scans" and presents you with an animated sequence of events!
TokyoFlash's most standard, traditional watch - the TokyoFlash Cyber Punk, comes available with a polished silver look and traditional LED-dot style font displaying the time. The time scrolls like a marquee across the face of the watch.
Made of high quality polished steel, the Diode is one of the most difficult to find watches in the TokyoFlash line, next to the Cyber Punk (the reason being - it was limited edition, and production is now over). The TokyoFlash Diode features a sequence of bright LED flashes that "run" up to the hour and minute, then "power back down" for a truly cool effect.
The TokyoFlash Equalizer High Frequency watch loosely resembles a 3D Tetris game - Day, Minute, Month, AM/PM are shown through a series of moving pixels that act like the graphic equalizer of a stereo system. The pixels push upward until they reach the time, then "hang" and fade off. Surprisingly, though all of the resources used to pull off this effect, the watch itself uses very little battery power!
Undoubtedly one of TokyoFlash's most gorgeous designs - the TokyoFlash Evolution features a ribbed watch face that complements its colored LED lights, which sparkle like jewels. With its solid steel straps, the watch is nearly impossible to find at your local watch shop. It uses a binary LED sequence to tell the time.
TokyoFlash Futara Mugen watches feature a mirrored surface (difficult to see on the picture to your right), with a "maze" like pattern that is reminiscent of the movie "Tron", that spirals and stops as it hits the center. The spiraling bars represent all of the 60 minutes in an hour, grouped in 10's. As TokyoFlash states, in just one day, you'll master telling time with this watch - so don't be scared off of its unorthodox way of telling time!
This is another watch for TokyoFlash collectors only - as it has now been discontinued. The TokyoFlash Jackpot watch features a 4-slot display with a handsome polished-steel face. Numbers spin around and around like a slot machine, and stop at the current time. It also features an amusing jackpot game, complete with authentic sounds!
It doesn't get much cooler than this: the TokyoFlash Morse Code watch tells the time in three different ways. 1) its built-in speaker pumps out a signal into your wrist, telling the time in Morse Code. 2) It displays the time in Morse Code on the watch face. 3) For those who don't know Morse - simply see the time in numerical format. The choice is yours! The LED itself is made at a brightness level that is very visible, even in direct sunlight.
This super-wide watch makes a great accessory for your jeans, t-shirt and leather jacket excursions. TokyoFlash's Twelve 5-9 B watch features a leather strap, and displays the hour on the left-hand circle. Minutes are shown on the top right bar, and seconds in the bottom right. The time can be told by pressing the watch's side button - in which it will go through a brief sequence of swirling through the circular and bar displays, and stop at the current time.
TokyoFlash Twelve 5-9 C watches are the personification of the future. It doesn't get more cutting edge than this! Featuring the identical method for telling time as seen in the 5-9 B, this watch has three bars for hour, minute and minute in-between.
Featuring 12 drilled holes in its rectangular-shaped watch face, the TokyoFlash Twelve 5-9 G uses the base numbers of 12, 5 and 9 to display the current time. Any mathematician could appreciate such a thing! Various architectural designs in the Tokyo metro area were used as inspiration in creating this watch.
Available in gunmetal or brushed silver, this TokyoFlash Twelve 5-9 L series watch shows hours on the right, and minutes on the left. A forewarning - the very tiny symbols next to the LED dots are in Japanese. As TokyoFlash states - you do not need to learn the language to tell the time, however - as it is an elementary concept that can be learned in no time!
TokyoFlash PIMP Star Performer watches spiral around its LED dots every two minutes, while stopping at the current time. Its numerical grid designates hours (left) and minutes (right), and each line is composed of dots that represent a set of minutes.
Designed for smaller wrists - the TokyoFlash Pleasure Seeker watch lights up three times a minute for 12 minutes, which is called "Pleasure Seeker Mode". It has a highly durable stainless steel body, and one red LED version features pink-tinted steel.
A very crisp design - the TokyoFlash Retrofit watch features nothing but a smooth, ribbed solid steel top rather than a watch face. Its time display is located facing you, if you wear the watch on your left wrist. Simply tilt your hand away from you to see the time! The Retrofit shows time on a marquee-style LED matrix.
