Yeah, but $3 ain't much for a bracelet that can pass a smart watch in a tok tok video.

To be fair the price is right, I was expecting it to have a $200 price tag and ward off 5G but shiat, for 400 yen it's a completely valid yet fashionable criticism of modern life and technology.

Shiat, I had forgotten that trend.

I wish iat had stayed that way.

Reminds me of the days I wore my garage door opener on my belt because it looked like a cell phone.

It's a gacha toy.  It's not just a bracelet, but a collectible bracelet shaped like a smart watch.

Exactly what Subby was thinking for the headline.

Actually, I'm going to Japan in April, I might pick one up. I wear a Rolex, but work from home.

So the time is NEVER right on it as the spring lasts ~30 hours and I go out less frequently than every 30 hours. For a while I would set it every time but one day I just went, "eh" and never set it again, making it a purely fashion device.

I may as well wear one of these and really embody "I like something on my wrist but it doesn't actually do anything"

"Collectible bracelet" sounds a lot like a bracelet to me, no matter how much you weebsplain it.
