The innocuous-looking wristwatch above is actually anything but. Since the brand name "Thanko" is mentioned, you should have already expected something quirky about it. Similar to its popular video pens, the Video Camera Analog watch encourages snooping, sleuthing, spying or whatever you want to call it with a built-in spy camera.
If you look closely at the image, you can find a pinhole-sized depression between 1 o'clock and 2 o'clock on the face of the device. The watch has an internal storage capacity of 4GB, enough to store two hours of video captured in AVI format with a 352 x 288 pixel resolution or enough to make a convenient portable storage device. Captured spy videos could be transferred to a computer via USB connection. The Video Camera Analog Watch now sells via Thanko in Japan for around $150.
