I've decided Casio's smart ring-watch is all that's good in this messed up universe right now

The Casio CRW-001-1JR smart ring being worn on a finger.

I'm still not entirely sold on the concept of wearables in their current form. While I can see the appeal of a smart watch, I've never felt like dropping a substantial amount of cash to transmute functions that my phone already handles with aplomb, to my wrist. And smart rings? Even less.

I like my rings dumb but desirable, and it appears Casio has taken that concept to heart. It's announced a digital ring/watch hybrid with some interesting features, although whether it technically counts as "smart" is dubious (via The Verge). But let's be honest, we're all here to marvel at how it's essentially an iconic Casio watch design, but for your finger bones.
