You’re going too fast.
One of my strangest habits is that I collect watches but I never wear them; I must have some strange relationship with the idea of time. I am completely aware of this habit and yet I am still drawn to watches and I keep buying them. Strange right? Or maybe not so. Time to me is luxury – so maybe this explains my relationship with luxury as well. Enter SLOW watch co.
SLOW watch company has done something pretty revolutionary with watches, the Slow Jo watch – the removed the minute hand and the second hand, leaving only one single hand by which to tell time on a 24 hour dial. What? I can hear your mind blowing up right now. How silly? How will you know the exact time? You won’t and that is the point. You can still read the time precisely enough, just not every second. And it doesn’t hurt that the watches are quite handsome.
The watches feature a Swiss made GMT Quartz movement, 100 Meter water resistance and extra hardened K1 mineral glass, a range of stainless steel cases including silver, gold and black are fitted with straps in metal, antique leather, nylon or canvas. Prices range from 230 to 260 Euros. And worth every penny, after all time is luxury.
