It could be computers, mp3 players or watches.

This could classed for the most modern man, but if you ever wondered what would happen if?

Below are some gadgets what would could get you out of the situation. “remember James Bond with his 007 Omega?”

Gadget Number 1.

Stops Boredom

Pretty much - the touch shares a lot of features with its telephonic big brother - multi-touch screen, motion sensors, Wi-Fi - but comes in at an even thinner 8mm and offers 8GB, 16GB and 32GB capacities. The 3.5-inch widescreen makes this as much a video player and pocket web browsing tool as it is a music device. This is a basically a pocket laptop. These start from £199 and are available to buy now.

Gadget Number 2.

Overcoming laziness

Let’s say you live a long way from your family – parents, grandparents etc – and you want to send them pictures of your kids. You could do it the old fashioned way and send prints in the post – or buy them one of these so you can let them see your pictures wherever you are in the world.

Or – if you want one for yourself, in addition to showing your artistic efforts and plain old holiday snaps, you can choose keywords from Flickr and, for example, tell your photo frame to display ‘hot babes‘, ‘Venetian architecture‘, ‘cats‘, ‘Sunsets‘, ‘watches‘… or whatever else takes your fancy. £150

Gadget Number 3.

If you get lost

Adventurers with a preponderence to veer off the beaten path could possibly use a device like this watch. Technically it’s created for aircrew because the watch has a transmitter that when turned on broadcasts for 48 hours over 100 miles on an aircraft emergency frequency. Of course the downside is that you’ll have to be conscious to switch it on and have a pocket deep enough to justify £4,000.

Gadget Number 4.

Could impress the ladies

Throwing a tennis ball or a frisbee while standing in water isn’t all that fun. So why not play with something that bounces on water, like a skipping stone that you can catch?

Enter the “Extreme” WABOBABALL - This new hi performing neon orange ball that really gets the wow-factor on the beach, in the pool or anywhere there is water. It can be played with just the ball, no goals, nothing extra.

It can be played in any plain water and bounces like a tennis ball on the ground. Simply throw it so that it bounces on the water between you. Try different angles, catching it with one hand, bouncing it on waves etc.

“Remember if your going into water remove your watch or get it tested every time you get your watch repaired you need to have it resealed just like it was when you purchased the watch”

Sports Watches 7 Reasons To Buy One

Martyn | Whats New | Saturday, 10 May 2008

What should you be wearing? What does your wrist want to wear? according to a survey from men’s heath the latest craze is chunky sports watches.

Why?

Below are 7 simple points which will keep you smiling, as the points could save you money and also help you loose weight!

  1. They’re proven to last four times as long as an ordinary watch as they are more resistant to breakage.
  2. Wearing a sports watch encourages activity.
  3. Rubber straps last longer than leather ones and the WilliamsF1 Team from Oris even moulds itself to your wrist’s shape.
  4. Most quartz watches need to be serviced every three years but Citizen’s Eco-Drive model has a solar-powered battery, so maintenance is kept to a minimum. (Although if used for diving it needs to be regularly serviced).
  5. An average watch uses a silver oxide battery that lasts two to four years, but most sports watches are lithium-powered and last usually 5 or more years.
  6. The functioning of mechanical watches is affected by extreme temperatures, but, thanks to new technology, the workings of the Planet Ocean by Omega are almost friction-free.
  7. Mechanical watches run the risk of damaging their balance and rotor axle during physical activity. Sports watches are designed to take the knocks and smashes of the sports field.

Great example of chunky sport watches are Citizen and Nautica, these two brands offer the robustness required for outdoor activity’s. Offering great water resistance some up to 300m and offer functions like alarms, chronographs and even world time.

Impressive Time will soon be stocking Citizen watches on line but in the mean time if you require further information your can call into one of the branches throughout the north west Citizen Watch Stockist. Impressive Time has the latest range of Nautica Watches one of the very few official stockist on line.
