For my 50th post, I have chosen probably the hardest to read LED watch from my collection.
This is the Radioactive watch from SeaHope, and was released around 2007. For more details on Seahope, see http://whichwatchtoday.blogspot.com/p/seahope-watches.html
The watch tells the time using 19 LEDs, but has no numbers to help. When the time button is pressed, the LED lights fill up and flash showing the time.
The watch model number appears to be Sea09, but on the back, it only says "Warning Radioactive".
As usual for a quiz day, let me know what you think the time is on the watch picture below. I'll update the post with the answer and how to read it after someone has got the right answer!
[UPDATE]: The time was correctly guessed, so time to explain how the watch works.
The way you tell the time is: The bar on the right is the hours (showing 5), and because the warning light at the top is on, you add another 6, giving 11 hours. For the minutes, the lights in the radioactive symbol mean 10, 20 and 30 minutes. The first and third of those is on, so it is 10 + 30 minutes = 40, and the number of reactor lights is the individual minutes (4), giving 44 minutes - so the time is 11:44
