Review on Slow Jo 05 - Swiss Made Single-Handed 24-Hour Watch - Silver with Black Leather Strap by Amy Mears

I've been researching alternative ways of displaying the time for some time now. I am an adult with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD/ADD) and this makes it very difficult for me to perceive the passage of time and I have to deal with the short term memory loss that comes with it. One technique used for children with this disorder is to use a timer that resembles a gradually increasing pie chart to help the child understand exactly how quickly time can go by. notion of time. I had a Nooka watch but felt it was more about novelty than functionality. The dial reflected light like a mirror and was very difficult to read on the low-contrast LCD (like an old calculator). Replacing the battery didn't help with the dark spots, so I started looking for other options. I stumbled across the 24 hour clock by accident and found it incredibly useful too. The only hand seems to follow the movement of the sun. Wearing a watch with 12:00 at the top gives you an idea of where the sun is in relation to your location on earth. When the sun is directly overhead, the arrow points straight up; at midnight the sun is on the other side of the globe. There are some watches that actually add a visual "horizon" (a line through 6 and 18), further emphasizing the concept. This watch is a bit difficult to find and like most people I don't want to spend a fortune. There are cheaper options, but most have two or more hands (adds visual clutter) or 24 (midnight) at the top. I think it would be too difficult to try to remove the minute hand from the clock. I find it much nicer to spend an afternoon up there. Even better, since the numbers are centered, the Slow Watch can be used any way you like. I like slow clocks. He helped me a lot and looks beautiful. If I could make a feature request, I'd like to see later models with either a shaded bottom half or skyline and the ability to use non-military time (where the 12, 1, 2 sequence would repeat instead). 12, 13, 14). But at the same time I am more than happy with my new watch. Pros: * Minimalist, sleek style * Great build. The softest leather strap I've ever seen.* I LOVE the anti-reflective coating. Almost no glare.* Easy to read, easy to understand.* A great conversation starter.* More classic than other "alternative" watches (binary, LED, etc.)* Less expensive than many other 24-hour single-hand watches. * Fast, Responsive, Helpful Customer Service * You can use the box it comes in to turn it into a small desk clock. *Suitable for people who have trouble understanding time (ADHD, etc.) or people who work irregular hours or are exposed to intense indoor lighting at night (emergency room nurse, etc.) Cons: * Not for people who need a watch with minute accuracy Time. That's not how the concept works. * No horizontal "horizon" line or hatching to indicate when it's dark. * Not a cheap watch. I apologize in advance for my small female hands in the unboxing video as they can make the watch look larger than it actually is.
