Creative Watch Designs for the Artistic Soul

Tuesday, October 4, 2011

If you’re an artistic person, then you probably don’t want a run-of-the-mill watch. Instead, consider owning a watch that reflects as much personality, flair and uniqueness as you do. There are a wide selection of watches out there to compliment every taste. Watches are meant to be functional; it’s true. However, they can, and are often used to make a statement. Need some ideas about an artistic watch that will reflect your inner (or outer) artist? Then read about some of these exciting, creative designs on the market.

The Artistic Series by Swatch

Whether your favorite color theme is a classic black and white or you prefer a collection of vibrant color, Swatch has many watches to choose from. One unique from the rest, each watch will give you something beautiful, interesting and best of all, artistic to look at anytime you need to know the time or simply want to look at a piece of artwork! Try The Swatch by the Gary Card Selection, which is full of interesting color patterns, geometric graphics and detailed design you can’t find anywhere else. The Artist Series Watches by Gary Card, David Benedek & Carrie Munden display many designs, ranging from checkerboard bands and bold graphic designs overlaying classic art deco. Pick and choose from their many masculine and feminine options, and you’re sure to find one that suits your eclectic taste.

Kisai RPM LED Watch

For any night owl looking for something a bit different than the average watch, the Kisai RPM LED watch is a perfect choice. With its black screen and disappearance of the traditional watch face, it looks more like a turntable than a watch itself. It displays the time in a unique reflection of itself, with minimal design that makes it look like you’re staring at an artistic turntable, ready to hear the beats turn up at any moment! It’s water resistant, comes with rechargeable batteries, and includes a simple clasp on the band for a no hassle way to place it on and off your wrist. Kisai is a Japanese company, and a clever one at that.  They’ve designed a watch not for the average Joe, but for someone that can appreciate a truly artistic design that gives off as much versatility and creativity as they do themselves.

EleeNo EG6

If you’re looking for some art-on-the-wrist, the EG6 made by EleeNo is a perfect combination of the creative flair and uniqueness you want in a decorative piece of wrist ware.  The EG6 offers many unique designs, all of which have different sizes and shapes to choose from. The face is the most interesting part of it all, with red/white, green/white Tetris-like designs that give off an animated vibe. For a graphic design watch, the EG6 is affordable while still being practical. It offers an LED backlight, LCD time display and the opportunity to read time in both single minutes and ten minute intervals. Accessorize even more by choosing from a bright lime green, pink, sky blue or black wrist band for that extra coordination you desire.
