iPHONE CASE

$39.90 (iPhone 7), $42.90 (iPhone 7 Plus)

The Capdase Armor Suit Combo Case consists of a slim compact case - Rider Armor - that is tested to US military standards for shock protection, and a detachable "anti-gravity" cover known as Newton Cover.

The Rider Armor has an interchangeable back cover - Rider Jacket - that you can interchange with the Newton Cover.

Klokers Klok-01

WATCH

$699

Looking for a unique timepiece? Check out the Klokers Klok-01.

Instead of the usual hands, it uses three rotating concentric rings to display time along a vertical red line. The rings - one each for indicating hours, minutes and seconds - rotate at different speeds, creating a symphony of motion. An integrated magnifying lens along the red line makes it easier to see the time.

This Swiss-made watch uses high-precision quartz movement and is made from a composite metal polymer for high strength and low weight.

It is waterproof to a depth of 5m.
