You get some of the latest devices first in Japan. This new Seiko Bluetooth watch for mobile phones is one such device. Apparently unveiled in 2001, a working prototype has now been made available by the folks there.

A large display adorns the wrist-watch, and it shows info about your cell phone - for example, stuff like battery condition, network strength and even new SMS messages. Of course, to get the SMS subject and sender on the phone, a special piece of software from Seiko has to be first installed on the phone (which presumably listens to incoming messages and sends new ones to the watch).
