slowing down... future fridays


I recently thought about this concept,
wanting to divide up my time into increments of 4 segments per hour, rather than 60 segments.

This company actually made something out of it.

This is definitely a goal for this upcoming school year: slowing down.





Slow is not a speed. It's a mindset that most of us somehow lost. 
Let's make it back to our life. be slow ...

The core of the slow watch is the unique 24-hour single-hand concept.
Hereby you see the whole day at a glance and you experience the time in its most natural way. This will fundamentally change the way you look at your watch and you will regain your awareness of the natural flow of time.
In fact, the idea comes from the very first clocks that were still based on the sundial. These "primal clocks" also had only one hand and trained every 24 hours. They can even be seen today on some very old church towers. Only when life was clocked faster and faster did people find it necessary to divide the day unnaturally into two 12-hour halves and every hour in 60 minutes. That's exactly where we started chasing after the minutes and getting stressed out of time.
So let's turn back the clock. Be slow again ...
