Definitely not cool.

Also, probably includes a significant risk of heavy metals poisoning.

Is it just because I am color deficient that I don’t see anything but a few slivers of reddish light, or is the time barely visible?

That picture sucks, so its not just you, but its set up like the old school clocks that light up individual parts of the 8. Hours/Minutes. Like so:

88  
88

If they didn’t give an angled view I bet you’d see it better.

From website:

_ **In fact, when you start wearing this watch you may find yourself spending all your time challenging strangers to duels.** You will probably live by the Bushido code of Rectitude, Courage, Benevolence, Respect, Honesty, Honour, and Loyalty. You’ll start reading kanji and reciting Haiku by Basho such as “even a horse / arrests my eyes—on this / snowy morrow.” Yes, The Iron Samurai has been known to increase its wearers’ strength, dexterity, constitution, intelligence, wisdom, and charisma by as much as 20 points each! Chuck Norris and Steven Seagal are said to be Iron Samurai owners, as is David Bowie and Brian Eno. **In reality, this watch is perfect for Presidential dinner crashers, Facebook celebs with over 1000 fans, Youtube directors with over 2,000,000 views, anyone who can play the entirety of Neil Zaza’s I’m Alright on electric guitar, iPhone 3Gs owners, or anybody who is a somebody.** _
