Our thanks to Watchismo for sponsoring another week of Boing Boing Blast, our delivery of blog headlines to your inbox.

Here's an unusually cool one, at least by Swiss standards! Tendence Watches of Switzerland introduced a radical new watch display featuring sculptural digits that tower over the dials. Inspired by the peaks of its hometown, Lugano, these new collections feature high-quality Swiss mechanical and quartz movements and are made from a combination of titanium, stainless steel and polycarbonate. They're available at Watchismo.com.

    I know this is a just a sponsor shout out, but I just had to mention what a huge fan I am of this company. I’ve ordered several watches from them over the years. They carry some of the coolest watches; some really way-out-there designs, and they regularly run sales that can score you a watch for a nice discounted price. I’ll always be a fan.

    I can’t tell if the numbers can be touched, or if they are still trapped behind glass. If the latter, it’s not that interesting, I don’t think. If the former, it’s really cool, but I can’t tell where the glass is and assume that the hands can’t just be exposed.
