New Tokyoflash Galaxy Watch Marks a Return to Overt Brashness (Tacky Watches)

Like most tech related sites we've featured more than a few Tokyoflash
watches in our time and, whilst on the whole we tend to like them (if
only from a novelty factor), we simply cannot see their latest watch as
being anything other than an overtly brash and somewhat insipid time
telling device that, we argue, manages to push Tokyoflash's trademark
abstraction just that little bit too far.
Billed as opening a door into a new world (of pure triviality, we
suggest), Tokyoflash's Galaxy purportedly uses multi-coloured light bars
developed using digital tube technology which, whilst sounding good on
paper, so to speak, translates into being a watch that few of us could
possibly feel confident wearing. It really is awful.
That said, if you are looking for a watch that's the equivalent of
having a fairground strapped to your wrist and is guaranteed to get you
laughed at, we don't doubt that the Tokyoflash will probably appeal.
Just don't expect anyone to think that you're either cool or got any taste.
Tokyoflash have produced some gems of late but this is most definitely
not one of them (and is duly filed along with the equally brash Kyokusen).
The Galaxy will set you back just shy of $131. Alternatively, if you're
looking for a distinctive timepiece with a little more class you may be
