Siberian arm watches: Arm watches started out as a mere practical tool for Eurasian workers, soldiers, and bureaucrats, who required a way to coordinate across various time zones in a region where the basis for telecommunications hadn't been built yet and mobile phones had yet to take off. This resulted in the creation of the Armwatch, a wearable cylindrical band that holds multiple watches, each set to a different time zone.
Initially, a contraption made by workers in Omsk, Sibwatches gained surprising popularity across Eurasia and later the rest of the socialist world even as advancing technology and increased interconnection made their initial purpose obsolete. They became mainstays and icons for the growing global trotter and Qitarat communities, with a person's Sibwatch often being modified, upgraded, or otherwise altered such that each is unique to a person.
After the Wamda, the Sibwatch would become increasingly adopted among the growing youth cultures of the neo-Comintern, and eventually across those of the western-Eurasian world, seen as a "cool" item to have; though the mass-produced western and even some neo-Comintern versions are often derided as "soulless" and "bland", especially since they are not made with future tinkering in mind.
