What's the best time to destroy an asteroid? PEW minutes to PEW.

If that's your kind of humour, then this is your kind of timepiece.

ThinkGeek's Retro Arcade Watch is a masterful blend of the ridiculous and the cool: a miniaturised arcade cabinet indicates the time with classic Asteroids (or, for legal reasons, Galactic Defense) icons - a larger rock for hours, smaller rock for minutes and the ship replacing the seconds hand.

Pressing the fire button lights up the hour marks and sends you into nostalgic space with retro sound effects. And no, the joystick doesn't do anything.

Arriving March, we're going to find all time-telling immensely dull until ours arrives.
