Inspired by future technologies we wanted to create a completely different, original timepiece.
It’s been a long time since mankind has stopped peering into the sky at the sun to calculate the time. Clocks were invented for this purpose. The first clock was created thousands of years ago. There were various types of clock, including sundial, clepsydra, hourglass and others.
Since then, the evolution of clock has continued and brought to us the first wristwatch. Every year there emerge dozens of new models of wirstwatch, but the operating principle has not changed.
We live in a new progressive millennium; everything around us progresses and develops. In our opinion, clock design should be both technically innovative and fashionable. Watches demonstrating that humanity does not stand still. These are the watches we bring into life.
On the Internet there were talks about a new generation of watches; however, they were just mere talks and nothing specific. Here we offer you the opportunity to see them, hold them and become a piece of history by wearing them; be the one that boosts the tech world evolution. We are talking about the generation of wristwatches, which project the dial onto your wrist.
Ritot will help you to stay on top of things with vibrating notifications, messages and alerts. Dismiss a notification with a shake of your wrist.

Unique design
We have been working on Ritot for 6 months. During this time we have done a lot of work to develop, design and to start developing prototypes.
Technology
The uniqueness of the technology lies in pico projector; it allows projecting a dial with high quality graphics and brightness. The watch doesn’t have any buttons, except of one touch sensitive button, with what you can manipulate the projection – run a mechanism of temporary (10 sec) or permanent projection.
Currently we don’t have a fully working prototype, the photos in campaign are computer renderings of what we envision the device to look like. But we will show technical specifications, list of Ritot components until 27th of July. Also we hope to show a real working prototype soon.
The watch is set up and charged on a specially developed base that comes with the watch.
This base allows you to:
• Change the projection color in one click. There are more than 20 colors available.
• Charge the watch using wireless technology.
• Choose 24 or 12 hour time display mode.
• Change the position of projection for your left and right hand.
• In addition, the base is equipped with an alarm clock.
We want to take a moment to tell you the story behind Ritot
Currently Ritot is based in Ukraine with a US San Francisco office. The company was founded by Michael Medvid. The idea of Ritot Watch came to Michael 6 months ago. After a lot of work with designing together with Andrew the idea became a beautiful concept. With support of Oleg the technology was tested and passed a lot of consultations with different developers and manufacturers to make sure that we can bring this concept into a real working product. Since we understood that people like Ritot Watch, we have moved to the next stage of development, and in few days we have to get all technical specifications and the list of all Ritot components that we’ll straight present to you.
Unfortunately, during all this time, we had political problems in our country, so we were not able to provide you with all detailed information about our team. In these hard days for our country we are working not only with our project, but also we are struggling for democracy and justice in our country. In this hard situation to avoid negative opinions we decided to specify only our aliases and address of our office in San Jose. It was a big mistake for which we are sorry. But since your trust is more important for us and you could be sure in our project, we would like to be absolutely honest with you. So we decided to provide you with the following honest information about our team. We had provided our passports and other proof information to Indiegogo to make sure that you can trust our company. Thank you for understanding.
