For sale: A cell phone wristwatch By Jeordan Legon CNN Thursday, May 29, 2003 Posted: 9:19 AM EDT (1319 GMT) The Wristomo has an optional cable that allows it to exchange data with a computer. (CNN) -- Visions of the comic strip detective Dick Tracy talking into his wristwatch phone have titillated imaginations for decades. But now, Japanese phone giant NTT DoCoMo is selling the real thing. The 3.9-ounce Wristomo silver-bodied watch-phone looks like a thick digital watch. The matching thick padded strap unclips from the wrist when two buttons are pressed. Then the gadget can be held to the face and used as a traditional cell phone -- the earphone on one end of the strap and the microphone at the other. The waterproof watch, which sells for $318, proved so popular when it was offered for sale May 7 on the company's Web site, DoCoMo reported that it had sold the first batch of 1,000 in less than 20 minutes.
