Ah, now I don’t know how to react on this. I mean on one hand I “kinda” liked they’re merging technology for convenience… at least for smokers. But on the other hand, it’s an odd combination, isn’t it? A lighter and a watch all as one? Hmmm… next thing you’d probably think is that the watch will take an alarm when it’s time for you to smoke! LOL.

Not sure if I’m happy to NOT see it into production, I could imagine some harm in combining a watch and a fire starter. Ah, the horror stories for those who travel often if and when this is commercially sold. We’ve had hard enough time in airports, let’s not make life a little harder, eh?

This gadget is part of the odd gadgets collection of retrothing.com . Nope, not on sale anywhere at all. Thank goodness!

Proud owner is Shea Connolly who says “I picked up this unique watch/lighter at a garage sale as a teen in the late 80s for $2 (price tag remains on box). I’ve never seen another one like it. Always thought it was an interesting combination. I have a small collection of vintage novelty watches, and this is my favorite.”
