This watch design could reinvent our whole perception over watches. The projects comes from a design contest organized by Timex to get new ideas for their future projects. The Nail Watch, as they naturally called it, allows you to check the time with just a quick glance over your arm.

It can be turned on or switch colors by pressing on the top of your nail. We can only imagine what sort of technologies the manufacturers would have to use to stick it to your nail, or where would they place the batteries or even circuits. However, I think it would revolitionize the entire watch industry if it would hit the market.
