There’ll be a new range of updated Pimp LED watches over at Tokyo Flash soon called Pusher, three models sporting an IP black polished case and a leather strap with a carbon fibre style coating.

“The Pimp ‘Pusher’ range introduces an all new look for the original 3 Pimp watches that started a whole fashion scene. The Pusher is more streetwise, black & leather, ideal for avoiding the narcs.”

All three models will cost €96.00 / $136.00 and they still feature Pimp Time, meaning it can animate the LED’s every 2 minutes between 6pm and 1am.

Here’s Fossil Wade, a retro and slightly oversized watch sporting a black leather strap and a metal case with black wood inlay and silver dial markers. Excellent.

Here’s Kyokusen (Japanese for ‘curved’), yet another stylish and unorthodox LED watch from Tokyo Flash. There’s two black models sporting black leather streaps and blue or green LEDs and one silver model with multi colored LEDs.

“Using cutting edge digital tube technology the display is noticeably brighter than typical LED watches and is viewable from a much wider angle.”

The Fusion DT1 LED Watch is yet another Japanese timepiece sporting an unorthodox way of telling time; the outer dots indicate hours, the inner circle minutes and the two rows in the middle indicate seconds. All made in stainless steel and available in two colors (black and silver).

This tiny (and seemingly happy-looking) retro robot can be attached to its wrist band when you commute to work, just to detach and stand on your desk while you work. You wouldn’t want to scratch your new aluminum Apple keyboard with a metal wrist band now, would you?

Unfortunately the site that sells these is in Japanese, but they’re available in silver and gun metal models and will set you back about 3,990 Yen (about $40).

Koenigsegg has joined forces with Edox and created a set of limited edition watches inspired by the Koenigsegg CCX. It’s stylish and all but I guess its primarily made for the most hard-core fans of this extreme Swedish sports car since they cost 30,000 Euro each (about 41,400 USD).

PIMP’s Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy 72-LED timepieces are something of a classic by now but I’d thought I’d mention the newer models featuring bright orange and blue LEDs with polyurethane straps instead of metal. To celebrate official pimp hours it animates a spiral every two minutes from 6 PM to 1 AM (so when it stops spiraling you know it’s official pimp sleeping time).

Let’s celebrate Sunday with another odd and Japanese timepiece from Tokyo Flash; Morse Code Watch. This watch lets you tell the time using three different ways.

1) By listening to Morse code emitting from the built-in speaker
2) By pressing a button to see the Morse code visually on the LED display
3) By pressing the button again to see the time in regular digits

Both the watch and strap is made in highly polished stainless steel.
