Hi all 👋, this week I'm going to keep it short 'n sweet with 2 clicks and 2 clacks as I wind down for the holidays. This is also the last issue of the year—I will be taking some time to rest, recuperate, and spring back into action come January.

My hope is to come back with an all new layout, look, and brand identity. It's something I've been working on and teasing here and there for the past few weeks, but now is the time to execute on that promise. I am unsure of when the official “release date” will be, but stick with me and I promise it will be good!

See you all in 2026!

Astonishing aesthetics

→ I've already begun to tire of the Liquid Glass aesthetic, so discovering Timedash felt like a breath of fresh air. These are retro 70s-inspired homescreen widgets for iOS, loaded with glance-able information, and offering tons of customization. Date, time, weather, and health data are just some of the available displayable information options with lots of updates and new widgets—like the recent countdown timer—being added regularly. Give their Instagram and Threads a browse to get inspired by just how much colour customization and theming is on offer here. Not all of these features are free, but staying on trend for almost everything I feature here, the free version grants 20+ widgets to test out!

→ As an extension of PlayStation's 30th anniversary celebrations from last year, watch maker Anicorn (regarded for their Trio of Time watch collection) has just released three PlayStation themed watches. The first (pictured above) is a very limited-edition (only 600 units) all silver model resembling the PS1, and the two cheaper black and white models feature floating PlayStation symbols embedded in the face with a more minimal design. The collection went on sale on the 18th and, despite increasing units for the special edition from 300 to 600 and putting other order restrictions in place to thwart scalpers, the limited-edition watch sold out almost immediately. Not to fret however, the cheaper white and black models (which I actually think are much more pleasing and wearable) are still available.

“Routine into Rituals”

→ From popular keycap manufacturer, Milkyway Keys, comes their first foray into keyboard design. The MASS 80 (Modular Adaptive Smart System) is a big step into new territory, but given MW Keys' history and success in the keycap game, it looks very promising. Key features on this board are the smart touchscreen module (for productivity timers, volume control, PC monitoring, or theming), a swappable “M-Panel” (magnetic face plate to alter the aesthetics and layout of the board), and a matching wrist rest. I personally love how different this board is, and MW Keys is swinging for the fences here—industrial, mechanical, robust, and powerful. In lieu of doing a traditional group buy, MW Keys has started a Kickstarter for this project which is live right now.

No time like the present

→ Next up is an exquisite keyboard from Wuque Studio called Nama, with a sculpted aluminum case and a very special knob featuring a Tourbillon movement engine inside. This type of engine is often included in high-end watches, and is typically exposed to view the intricate inner workings of the time-keeping mechanism. In this board, it is included (and on display) so you can constantly view the rhythm of this piece, without worrying about the time—keeping you in the present and “the master of your own moment”. Definitely not for everyone, but super special as a collector's item.

That’s all for this week! I hope you enjoyed it, and now it’s time to hear from YOU 🫵. I want to know your opinion—what you liked, what you loved, what you didn’t like, what you skipped.

Email [email protected] (or reply to this issue!) and have a great rest of 2025 and Happy Holidays!!
