Remember the buzz generated when rumors of a BlackBerry watch was circulating a few days back? Well, it is time for a reality check, where RIM co-CEO Mike Lazaridis sniggered when asked when will the fabled BlackBerry watch be released to the masses. Perhaps he is laughing at the sheer impossibility of that happening, or could he be secretly happy deep down inside, knowing that this might be just the thing to knock the iPhone off its lofty perch?

Remember that rumor about RIM working on a Bluetooth watch to accompany its phones? Well looky here. We may now have the first real renderings of the final product. It may be called the “inPulse” and it features an OLED display, real-time message preview, and probably caller ID. Looks like the watch isn’t being developed by RIM. Instead, work has been farmed out to a company dedicated to the BlackBerry aftermarket. An official announcement is coming “soon.” Thing is, Bluetooth watches haven’t been great sellers, but maybe more compatibility

Nooka’s latest timepiece, the ZAZ watch, will come with a totally translucent display that allows all and sundry to have a good look at your natural skin tone while wearnig the watch. Apart from that, the time is marked via a display that is not too different from the Zenv style, where blocks will appear on the transparent display as though they were a part of the wearer’s wrist. The Nooka ZAZ watch will come with a silver face alongside a trio of band options – black, white leather or a silver mesh.

What time is it? Its either infinity or 8 o’clock depending how you look at it, with this geek watch. This DOGNE watch takes the infinity symbol and divides it into a 24-hour clock. Your minute information is displayed on the outer part. The upper part of the infinity sign represents the hours for AM and bottom the hours for PM. It costs just $1200 and it also charges via USB and synchronizes with calenders (Outlook, Gmail etc) and displays the events on the screen. Infinityyyyy and beyond. [New Launches]

The Invisible Shot Laser Watch is totally different from the rest despite maintaining the basic bracelet form factor of a watch, where pressing a discreet button will see a laser light reflect the time on your wrist. Don’t worry, this is a low-powered laser that won’t cut your appendage off to turn you over to the Dark Side, but will definitely appeal to the teeny-bopper generation who love stuff like laser pointers and have an idea of where all the coolest rave parties are held at all times.

Here is a futuristic watch concept that uses a modulated laser scanner to projects the time onto the surface of your wrist. Designed by Andy Kurovets, the Invisible Shot Laser Watch uses only a low-powered laser beam so that it won’t cut your skin off. I want to purchase this watch, but unfortunately it is only a concept.

Who needs old fashioned hands that go around a dial, when you can have lasers? That’s the thinking behind the latest concept watch from Alessi. Supposedly, the Laser Shot watch won’t burn your hand as it pew pew pews the time on your wrist using a laser beam. So it’s totally safe. Unless you wake up one day to find the time permanently tattooed on your skin and glowing. In which case, it’s time to get a new watch. But hey, that’s the price you pay for having cool things. We may see this as a real product one day soon if they can persuade people

I still remember those good old days when Casio made calculator watches, but this time round times have progressed to such an extent a calculator watch would be downright…weird. After all, don’t cellphones have that function? Enter the Casio Cubic Puzzle watch instead, where it doesn’t come with any integrated gaming action, although you do get an animated display alongside basic functions such as 12/24 hour time and date functionality, stopwatch, alarm and a backlight. You can choose from either blue or black colors,

The Ora watch comes with a face that is definitely different from what you’re used to, since it features a face that is interwoven with the background of measuring tape. Whether the final product is fashionable or not, we leave that up to your own interpretation, but you can be sure that this is definitely something different. Would you want to see a concept like this hit the market, and how much are you willing to pay for something like this?
