Overcoat with integral wristwatch

 So simple

LCD clock/watch displays are very cheap.

Why not make an overcoat that has a large LCD watch built into one cuff, protected in a tough rubberized surround ? No need to remove gloves, pull up sleeves, dig in pockets for phones - just look at your wrist.

It could have EL or LED backlighting, which could be recharged from photovoltaic epaulettes.

       And naturally bluetooth to your phone so it would always have the correct time and not need setting.

       As long as the all-up cost of the accessory adds no more than about USD $3 to the price of the coat, for the entry-level version.

       //integral// spelling inserted. An overcoat that changes form or density to the current time might be more advantageous.
