This is Momentum, a limited edition blackboard-style watch designed by Rolf Sachs for Swiss watch makers Fortis. Stylish? Ugly? I might lean a bit more to the latter, but who am I to judge, you got to admit it’s original. It comes with a hefty price tag though, expect to pay up around $1050 for it.

Oh man, I remember buying a Panasonic DMC-LX2 just for the old-school look of it, but Olympus PEN E-P1 gives me an even stronger crave. Olympus launched the original half-frame film PEN in 1959 and now this light-weight little device with interchangeable lens is available in a modern, digital form.
Besides the striking looks you get 12.3 megapixels, TruePic V image processing engine to provide high quality stills (equivalent to traditional SLR’s according to Olympus, but you know), 3 inch display, level gauge to help you shoot straight horizons, HDMI output, stereo audio recording and the possibility to record 720p HD movies. Software-wise you get face detection, automatic shadow adjustment and manual focus assistance.
The PEN will start selling in July 2009, no word on pricing though.
Check out the PEN E-P1 gallery after the jump!
