This bulky package is a Nixie tube wristwatch. We still like [Woz's] watch better but this one has a few nice tricks of its own. Notably, there aren’t any buttons to set the time. Instead, a large magnet is used to actuate a magnetic switch inside the body. Speaking of enclosures, the*case is aluminum and the face plate is polycarbonate but looks like it’s been vacuum formed. Check out the clip after the break.
