New Watch for Christmas!

I have been looking for a new watch for about two years now, and finally stumbled on this a few months ago. It's called 'Cyclops' and it's from Mr Jones Watches, who have some amazing timepieces. As you can see, it has no numbers or hands (!!): the black circle tells the time in relation to the coloured circles. When it's over the circle, it's on the hour - when it's in between two circles, it's half-past the hour.

I was so excited to open this on Christmas day - my Mum and Dad gave it to me and I have had so much fun wearing it already.

  1. I love Mr Jones Watches! I wanted to get one of the Everyday Special watches for my husband with our anniversary date on it but they had already sold out- boo.

  2. It's wonderful. I've also been looking for a watch as a mini project for a while now... I like the move around on the page also!

  3. What a fantastic watch! I think it would take me a while to get used to though.

  5. Thanks! Yes, I love wearing it. Pretty and functional. Love. It did take me a week or so to get used to, but I'm really good at it, now!

  6. EEEK!!! Where did they find it? My husband just bought this watch last week from Mr Jones Watches shop in the Oxo Tower in London... We actually met the guy who makes them... well, he designs them and has them made in China but you know what I mean ;) Such a great coincidence. Happy watch wearing! I agree, it's very hard finding a good watch. K x

  7. Hi Kylie!
    I actually found it online in my travels - and told Mum and Dad about it when prompted :) What a huge coincidence you bought one in London - crazy small world...
