nooka watches


"to mark ten years of spongebob squarepants, nickelodeon/viacom consumer products and fashion design brand nooka inc. have got together to create a line of limited-edition watches inspired by the character [...] the concepts and graphics of both untraditional watches are reflective of the geometric themes and bold color pallets of spongebob squarepants and nooka's design methods."

i happen to find spongebob extremely obnoxious, but i can't help but love
these watches!

digital clock


Digital clock: only figures, no case, only the necessary – only accurate time. Each figure has self-contained power supply and independent control, it can be fixed to any surface autonomously. A light sensor will switch the clock to an invert mode: the figures are white in the dark time of day and black at daytime.
