California company offers a Grenade Watch: It gives you that chic, snappy suicide-bomber look without having to undergo demanding training in Pakistan, messy explosions, and painful martyrdom

Now, here is a really good idea from Costa Mesa, California-based Vestal: A wrist watch that looks like a hand grenade. This Vestal Grenade Watch may well get lots of giggles — and more than a few scary screams — from those who see it, giving you that chic, snappy suicide-bomber look without having to undergo demanding training in Pakistan, messy explosions, and painful martyrdom. It is sturdy, too, standing up to even the most demanding activities with its stainless steel housing, 30-meter water preassure resistance, mineral face, leather cuff, and canvas band. The question is, can you get through airport securty checkpoints wearing this watch. Those who man these check points are not known for their sense of humor.

You can buy the watch at Acquire for $158.00.
