I believe it's a current product only because I can still find it available at some stores (in stock)

How about a FM mono Boombox watch Nak D  

a futuristic prototype FM watch in 1984. The three separate cases hold an LCD watch, piezoelectric speaker and FM tuner, along with a separate battery compartment in the clasp. The watch design was spearheaded by Sinclair product design manager Dagfinn Aksnes, who recalls that Clive Sinclair's casual design brief was, "Design an FM Radio Watch as small as possible. The watch must have an integrated speaker and aerial. The aim is to design the first/smallest integrated FM Radio Watch in the world." Sinclair's partner TIMEX was selected to manufacture the revolutionary watch.

Unfortunately, in the mid 1980s caused the project to be canceled after the production of a mere 11,000 units (the tooling was built to handle an annual production capacity of 500,000 watches) and only a few remain today.
