These funky watches, featuring waving White House hopefuls, are the latest gimmick in a strange and exciting new world of politics-gone-tech.

Conceived by a serial inventor and entrepreneur Steven Edelson and first introduced during the 2004 presidential election, the watches are back with brand new candidate dials for another go-around. In addition to keeping its owner current, each of the watches actually helps track the candidates' popularity. That's because the purchase of every timepiece translates to a vote on the ElectionWatch poll. What's the score so far? According to the latest count, Obama watches are outselling McCains' more than 10 to 1, while the beckoning "third hand" on the Hillary Clinton dial is waving good bye.

"Most election paraphernalia are conversation stoppers," says Edelson. "These watches have a whimsy that's an icebreaker." Want to grab your own? Go here.
