sand + time watch

36,029 Views * 40 views today

Sand+Time Watch is a project that unites modern technologies and old ways of measuring time. Sand+Time offers its wearer the time in modern electronic hours, but the form of the interface has also been borrowed from an old sand hourglass. The watch functions in two modes. The first, the screensaver, takes the form of a sand hourglass counting a certain time unit set by the user to their preference. (The default setting for the hourglass is to count one minute.) The second mode displays the time in numbers ?– the most common electronic interface for the modern person.

    This is marvellous!
    I don’t wear a watch because I’m not so much interested as what time of day it is. What I am interested in, is how much time do I have left before I have to rush off to the next thing on my calendar. This, I’d wear and love this. Hope it comes to market. Moms worldwide would call you blessed. We could even put it on our children’s arms when they go outside and we say “be back by …” or “you’ve only got … minutes”. Children have NO concept of time. But a visual representation like the egg timer, they understand.

  11. Xander Xander Says:

    Usually, watches don’t phase me. But this design is certainly not only eyecatching, but useful as well. This is one watch I’d actually wear than leave it in the giftbox.

    To Nicha: I find pairing up a girly outfit with something that is a little masculine,sets you apart(good apart)

    Back in the 70s, a short story of mine was published in a Harper & Row anthology edited by Damon Knight called ORBIT 16. The story was called “Sandial.” I’d be happy to license the name in exchange for a bunch of these. Please do make them!
