Congratulations to Arthur N. of Glendale, Ariz., for winning three Misfit Bolt color-changing LED smart bulbs last week. This week, we've got another colorful prize -- a wristwatch that displays the time with a rotating LED display concealed behind a dark sandalwood surface.

The Kisai Blade Wood Link watch comes from Tokyoflash Japan, purveyor of wacky watches with a geeky flair. It's called the Blade because LED "blades" spin around the watch's face to indicate the hour and minutes (see the video below for a better sense of how that works). Despite the model's minimalist aesthetic, you can pair it with a smartphone via Bluetooth to get notifications, via gentle vibration or LED indicator, when you get a call, email, text or social alert.

So what do you have to do to get this unusual watch worth $159 onto your wrist? There are a few rules, so please read carefully.
