Whilst cell phone wrist watches are by no means anything new, few – if any –boast quite the degree of highly distinctive and deliciously glorious retro space age styling as this U200i UFO watch which not only serves as a touch screen time piece and a cell phone, but also has a camera and integrated digital media player functionality thrown in for good measure.
Looking like some kind of rediscovered alien gadgetry from the ‘70’s – we love the key/number pad layout – the U200i UFO may be somewhat clunky but, with styling as beautifully geeky as this we’re just about ready to forgive everything.

The U200i UFO Touchscreen Camera/MP3 Cell Phone Wrist Watch measures in at 72.5(L) x 36.4(W) x 23.5 (H) mm and offers a purported 120-180hrs of standby battery life and a talktime of around 2-3hrs and although we wouldn’t be seen dead wearing it, curiously, we think we’re in love (it’s gadgets that look like this that make us proud to be geeks).
The U200i UFO retails for $234.99.
(Seems like our friend Technabob also caught onto this the same time as we did - Great minds, eh Paul, lol)
