This slick Atari Asteroids watch already sold out, but should really just be a Wear OS watch face

Atari celebrates its arcade classic Asteroids with a limited edition wristwatch.
The watch features a cute time-telling mechanic, with your ship and a couple UFOs indicating the time.
Atari already makes official Asteroids watch faces for Wear OS, and we would love to see this design join them.

Modern horologists have dreamt up some utterly fascinating watch designs, and even fully mechanical offerings are reaching complexity that’s nothing short of mind-boggling. And for as much as we love the flexibility of a good smartwatch, it’s very easy to get caught up in the allure of a particularly compelling traditional wristwatch. Today we’re checking out one that’s going straight for the nostalgia jugular, as Atari shares its limited edition Asteroids watch.

Asteroids hit arcades all the way back in 1979, with sharp vector-based graphics and fast-paced space combat action. The classic inspired countless other space shooters over the years, and has absolutely earned its spot in the annals of gaming. In order to celebrate that legacy, Atari teamed up with watchmaker Nubeo to put together this custom watch with an interesting time-telling mechanic.
