There are two ways to look at The Accurate, a wrist watch where the hour hand reads, “remember” and the minute hand reads, “you will die.” On the one hand you could look at it as a morbid reminder that death comes to us all. I would prefer to look at it as an invitation to live life to its fullest for every moment could be our last. It has a mirrored face, so every time you read the sombre message you will be looking at your own reflection.
It is an attractive watch with an interesting design and the price is reasonable.
Price: $145 from Watchismo
