This 'Fallout' Pip-Boy Smartwatch Mod Turns You Into the Wasteland Wanderer

Bethesda's post-apocalyptic Fallout series is iconic to say the least. Though this genre is nothing new, the RPG mechanics blended seamlessly throughout rich narratives sets this publisher's franchise at the top of the gaming food chain. Though the series has evolved much though its progression over the years, the fanbase only continues to grow and through that loyalty comes some pretty sweet ways to bring the Wasteland into the real world. with less radiation, of course (we hope).

Can your watch do this? from r/gaming

The latest method of harnessing that inner Sole Survivor comes from a fan-made watch mod that turns the wearer's boring old face into that of a traditional style pip-boy. Also - like the in the games themselves - the wearer can also change the colour of their pip-boy interface. In-game, I always went purple, so seeing that available for as well is pretty spiffy!
