Swiss watches are a concept of accuracy and a Swiss landmark, so it was only a matter of time before one of the local manufacturers decided to make a smart watch. Perhaps surprisingly, this is not Swatch, but fashion watchmaker Mondaine. Helvetica No. 1 is therefore an apt name for a smartwatch that looks more like the classic, analog watches the Swiss are known for than smartphones, as is common practice.

iReadyO is a portable radio or iPhone case with a retro design inspired by Braun's TP1 transistor from the mid-1950s. It works by using previous iPhone models, which serve as a "tuner" for the case, equipped with control buttons, an additional battery and speakers. At the same time, it solves the question of where to go with the old phone in an elegant way. In this case, the second spring awaits the iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and 5S, but only if the project succeeds on Kickstarter.

Although it has barely started its Kickstarter campaign, it already exceeded the goal of 500 thousand dollars in 20 minutes, and after an hour the number jumped to two million.

Goodbye playgrounds.
