Click Black Keypad Hidden Time watch shows off your love of the number pad

It’s funny how much functionality people will sacrifice in the name of art or fashion. This Click Black Keypad Hidden Time watch is a perfect example of that. Heck, the name even sounds complicated.

Dumb-Bell Cutlery lets you work out while you eat

Working out is one of those things that most people hate doing. We were trained all of our lives that candy is good, and exercise is bad.

While I don’t think this product is going to solve obesity, it will definitely bring a bit of a workout to the table, literally. The Dumb-Bell Cutlery consists of a spoon, knife, and fork that have been separately cast onto…
