I like to have a quick glance at my watch to tell the time – it's that simple!
Let's look at a few examples – of a couple of models that require a lot more than a “quick glance”. First the Deja Vu watch @ around £100.
The Deja Vu
More a case of Jamais vu (French, meaning ”never seen”) used to describe any familiar situation which is not recognized by the viewer . . . .
Then there's the Free Time Watch – and yet another case of peering at the dial, that is IF you can see it in the available light.
Never ending spiral, wheel within a wheel – reminds me of a song!
Oh, that makes it OK then? Even at £85 – not really – and certainly not for me!
I'm afraid by the time it takes to work out the time, the departure gate has closed and my plane has taken off!
But all is not lost as I've just spotted a “New”, “Cool” and rather “Snazzy” model that I CAN tell the time from – and at a glance too!
The SOND – one of the few NEW and SNAZZY models that only requires a glance
A battery life of two years can be changed via a coin hatch in the stainless back (haven't seen one of those for a while) and it's good enough for
3ATM (30m) and the size quite compact at 38mm x 44mm with a 22mm nylon band.
As said with this model I can tell the time (or the date) at a glance – isn't that brilliant! And in this company it's the best price too at around £60.
Of course I'm maybe biased being of the older generation, so if you like these guys, even the first two and you like a challenge – then I have seen them I think on that very good “new watches” web site – Twisted Time – HERE
Anyway I have to go, I've just had a “quick glance” at my 16″ kitchen clock and the big hand is pointing to “dinner” – so bye! bekijk meer horloges rolex en chopard mille miglia
