Turkey gets wristwatch with built-in credit cardHere's something you certainly don't see every day. Turkey's Garanti Bank has teamed up with MasterCard to offer the world's first watch with a PayPass-enabled credit card built in.

PayPass is a special technology enabled on credit cards and keytags that allow consumers to pay for smaller purchases by just tapping it onto a special sensor.

Participating retailers in Turkey include Burger King, Starbucks, and the Istanbul Ferry Corporation. Want a double cheeseburger? Just tap your watch against the counter. Among the myriad GPS, TV, music, and Windows Mobile watches out there, this has got to be one of the most useful watch ideas I've ever seen.
