Dot Matrix Watches

It's not often that you'll find the words 'fashion' and 'technology' in the same sentence, but when it comes to Dot Matrix Watches it's unavoidable. So deliciously designed that they're almost edible (despite missing many of your RDA vitamins), these leather wristband watches are studded with a matrix of black LEDs that, at the touch of a button, do a funky kind of Mexican wave scroll effect and then display the time in classic Dot Matrix style - and a second press will display the date.

Available in tan leather with yellow lights, or black leather with red lights, the Dot Matrix's can display both 24hr and 12hr time, and has a built-in power saving mode, so the time or date is automatically switched off after three seconds. They may be low in calories, but these leather strapped Dot Matrix watches are exceedingly high in style.

Features Genuine leather wristband watch studded with black LEDs. Available in a tan leather wristband with yellow lights or a black leather wristband with red lights. The watch displays the time and date. Press the button on the side once to trigger a scrolling light effect before displaying the time in classic Dot Matrix style. The time can be shown in 24 hour or 12 hour format. A built-in power saving mode to extend your watch's battery. It kicks in after 3 seconds of displaying the time or date. A sturdy white presentation box. Suitable for ages 8 years+. Requires a CR2032 watch battery (included). Size: 26 x 3 x 1cm.

Mini Travel Speakers

These foldaway Mini Travel Speakers are the bees knees in mobile sound. Bigger than the knees of bees of course, and altogether structurally different we'd imagine, but nevertheless really very, very good. Why bees knees were ever intended to be a measure of goodness someone will no doubt tell us now we've been foolish enough to bring the whole topic up, we'll keep you posted. Drifting off the point somewhat, back to these brilliant and compact Mini Travel Speakers. They come in the ubiquitous chic white, or in an incredibly realistic and original wood grain look that looks awesome, and really feels like sanded wood.

They fold away into a compact cube (well almost a cube), and when folded out have a slot-in tray for holding your MP3 player. Powered by four AAA batteries they have a jack cable that plugs into your player, and when on the move stows away into a very neat groove. They look great, sound great, have no connection with bees whatsoever, and make for the best priced and best sounding compact travel speakers we've ever seen.
