Walkie Talkie Watches

What are They?
It doesn’t take a genius to work out what Walkie Talkie Watches could be. Yes. you guessed it…. Its two watches that double up as walkie talkies. Granted, the first thing we thought was “a walkie talkie in a watch! That’ll be poo, as it will have no range, eat batteries, have no functions and be seriously fiddly/difficult to use”. So naturally we had to have a closer look.
At first glance we were surprised by the size. They are oversized, compared to a Casio watch, but not as much as you might think. The face of the “watch” only measures in at 7 x 6 x 2.5cm and when you consider that the aerial can be folded in and out when needed it is surprisingly small. The next thing we noticed was that they come with an AC adapter and earpiece each. So the AC adapter means no replacing batteries and no wind-up walkie talkies, Bonus! And the AC adapter means no batteries necessary, double bonus!
Voice Recording Spy Watch

I love multi-purpose gadgets, especially ones with practical and covert uses. This little gem of a Voice Recording Spy Watch is just such a gadget. Concealed within this fine piece of craftsmanship is 1GB of flash memory attached to a microphone. You may be asking how this is practical or covert. Or you might have already seen the nearest uses this gadget could be used for.
The microphone is cleverly placed so that you can clearly record while the watch is still on your wrist. This makes it very easy to covertly record conversations without raising suspicion. Perfect for people who need that extra bit of evidence or to catch that embarrassing info on tape that will allow you to extort pints from friends in exchange for your silence.
