Description

Summary: two cryptic segmented columns
Readability: impossible at first, medium after training
Examples: 04:36, 12:59, 18:25, 20:47

I played once more with digits that got stolen the center segments and thought about emphasizing the void on the "hardware" level of the watch face design. This is how the two columns of lights were made. Please check the number explanation in the preview section!

At first those light columns are seen as single information units but the way to read the watch is across the center gap which nobody will know when you show them the display. 

I let the lights seem to originate from the lateral display edges, getting stronger on the and then suddenly stop. This bilateral design reminded me of a capacitor, and so the name was born. 

The Capacitor watch face is for fans of science fiction as well as science fact.
