Ring Clock is precious project of Gusztav Szikszai that took 2 years from the initial design picture to prototype. The first this project was posted online, there were lots of interests and many people asked how they can get one of these rings. Since then, this concept has been adjusted, tuned, and modified so that it can be mass produced for the market. It features simple and clean design, the numbers that represent the time are displayed around the ring’s band.
It’s a beautiful gadget, eco-friendly and playful, you can spin the ring to know the current time. You can wirelessly charge this ring, the energy saving LEDs save a lot of energy with ultrathin battery. Started as a challenge at CGSociety to create futuristic product that couldn’t be exist today but could be, in the next 10 years from now. The result is pretty awesome ring, don’t you think?
