Data-flashing mobile telephones may have lessened the need to wear watches, but a Japanese firm is hitting back, creating a wristwatch for the technophile on the move. Citizen Watch announced on June 12 it will market two watches from July that will signal incoming calls and arriving text messages even if the telephone is stuffed in the person's bag. The men's watches, which feature a large rectangular screen with luminescent blue diodes, will use the Bluetooth technology that can transmit data within several meters. There are also plans to launch models for women.
