A Braille watch is just like a regular watch except it has a flip lid so you can touch the inside. The numbers could be Braille, but mostly likely people just read the numbers by their location. A lot of Blind people also have talking watches.

Have you ever heard the song "Braille" by Regina Spektor?
Saturday Morning Basic Studio Class

It's talking about how she (the person in the story) was "playing with matches" with a boy and she got pregnant and had a baby and how life is hard by "eating cold, cold Campbells from the can" and she's looking at her stretch marks calling them Braille...like they tell the story of her life.

In the song it says "She hadn't been a virgin and he hadn't been a god" (referring to the boy) so she named her baby Elvis to make up for the fact he wasn't born in a suitable environment, saying she was "making up for the royalty he lacked".

I think it's an awesome song. Here's the link if you want to check it out:

    . The products page seems to have a whole lineup of watches available, including this Braille watch. (The pages loads exceedingly slowly, be patient). There is even a floating clock animation with 2005 in it and a picture of one of Raketa's calendar watches with a date scale running up to 2012. Another page on the site has a watch face with the year 2003 clearly visible on it. I have encountered some speculation that that Raketa never went bankrupt but instead has been trying to create the illusion that their products are scarce to boost prices (see The Braille watch appears to use a chrome plated case with a snap-on stainless steel back. The case measures 38mm wide at its widest point (diagonally)...
