Sponsor Shout-Out: Watchismo

Our thanks go to Watchismo for sponsoring Boing Boing Blast, our once-daily delivery of headlines by email.

Watchismo is proud to be the first watch retailer offering SISU Watches, some of the boldest designs to fly into the horological stratosphere. Two collections are introduced, the Swiss ETA mechanical SISU Bravado and SISU Guardian automatics. Their beauty is in the details: look around the collection and see design elements such as the SISU Guardian A3's Super-LumiNova digits, glowing beneath elevated silhouettes to create an eclipse effect on the dial.
