welcome to the old future

rotary phone lovers and analogue/digital clock haters who still want to be able to know what time it is can rejoice, thanks to japan's maywadenki company. the zihotch dial phone watch is an old-timey rotary phone style device you wear on your wrist. when you want to know what time it is, you dial 1-7-7, and a woman's voice will announce the time (177 is the number you call in japan for this service over a real phone line).
