Ok so we have a Vinyl Record Watch, what comes next?
Cassette Tape of course!
I tried to design within a limitation of the Cassese Tape design. This time, the idea I came up with was to use one of the gear teeth of the tape rotation system to be used as the hour indicator.
And the minute is indicated by the black "tape" bits, but instead of showing exact minute, it can only roughly show you that it's closer to 0 or closer to 30 min:
- Dial: Interestingly, that white background thing in-between the "tape-minute-disks" is what is usually considered as a watch dial.
- Hands: Unique hour disks, unique oval minute disks, and unique rotating 3D "spindle"!
- Case: A brand new Cassette Tape case! (there was previously a prototype that didn't work, with a slightly different case shape)
- Movement: Two Seiko Instruments / TMI quartz movements
- Strap: Genuine leather

1-Year Manufacturing Defects Warranty
I have been wearing one of the functioning prototypes for almost 6 months. So far, it's functioned with no problems, and I am confident that it would for at least the next 6 months.
The reason I made sure that it's specifically 1-Year warranty for "Manufacturing Defects" is that I believe that most of the people who have never utilized the warranty of a product don't realize that the warranty only covers Manufacturing Defects. Some watch brands offer a longer warranty, such as 5 years or 10 years—but by then, how would you know that your broken watch suffered a manufacturing defect, or normal wear-and-tear? And would you ever be able to convince the brand's customer service that it was indeed a manufacturing defect?
Their warranty doesn't cover wear-and-tear, or user error, and neither does this warranty. But I do think it is important to clarify that it is a warrant for manufacturing defects, instead of just issuing that it is a vaguely worded "warranty" which sounds like something that might cover something more than manufacturing defects. And 1 year is enough time to warrant manufacturing defects.
