Japanese timepiece maker Seiko will be manufacturing a women's E-Ink watch, which uses the eponymous technology to change the display, like a primitive LCD. Right now there are only two modes: "Efficiency," which displays the time in an easy-to-read format, and "Mystery," which renders numbers in a more artistic fashion.
Pictured above are a prototype from 2005 (left) and what the actual release model will supposedly look like (right). The photo on the right shows the timepiece in Mystery mode, but the real mystery is when Seiko's going to release the thing. No date has been announced.

One issue with the blurb is that the watch on the left was launched. I tried it on in HK. 2500 USD. It is very impressive and heavy. The effect is very cool. From what the sales rep told me they made about 400. He ordered 10 and only 7 arrived and he had sold 6 before he even got his order in.
