'Beautiful Women Clock' debuts as iPhone touch application

'Beautiful Women Clock' debuts as iPhone  touch application

TOKYO —

Phiria Design this week debuted its popular service known as “Bijin Tokei” (“Beautiful Women Clock”) as an iPhone or iPod touch application that can be downloaded through the AppStore. Known as “Bijin Tokei for iPhone,” this application is the renewed version of the original service, with a number of useful functions that are sure to get “Bijin Tokei” fans excited.

The original “Bijin Tokei” has been available through its official website, as a Google gadget, and as an application for blogs, and has constantly been on the top of the gadget rankings, confirmed by the fact that it is downloaded by 2,000 people every day. It is a clock that shows a picture of a different “beautiful woman” for every four minutes throughout the day showing a total of about 360 women and a grand total of 1,440 pictures. These “beautiful women” were asked to model on the streets of downtown areas such as Shibuya and Harajuku.

For the “Bijin Tokei for iPhone,” pictures of an additional 120 women or so were shot on the streets, and functions have been added that allow you to set an alarm so that you may be alerted when your favorite “beautiful woman” comes up as well as download pictures of “beautiful women” that you find particularly appealing so that you may set it as your wallpaper.

With its catchphrase of “Add an essence of beautiful women to your daily life,”  Phiria Design said it is looking forward to expanding its service even more, such as by changing the “beautiful women” theme to a “Bidanshi” or “beautiful men” theme or to a pet theme, and devising a night version and a global version of the clock. These different services will be available for download in the near future.

    "Are any of them older than 11??" yes in contrast to at least lets say western models (pro or otherwise)[ also in this case the age old debate of western women age faster in terms of looks] full personal stats are given on the website version at least.

    Um I guess everybody is missing my point the new beutiful women is around 11 here. I figured if it was the usual smut they would have it full of lolita's like the mags on the 711 racks.

    While this sounds like a pretty elaborate sleazy screensaver, I actually think the Pet Clock idea would sell .
