This is a Swiss made one hand watch. In as-new condition. It is designed as a lifestyle watch when precise time isn't always needed. I call it a "retirement watch"... Very stylish and keeps great time. It will take a couple days, but once you get used to it you can tell time within about five minutes. This watch sells for $300. I have my eye on something else, so Id like to find this one a new home. Will sell for $190 TYD. Here is a link with more info

$300? I have owned a lot of $10-15 Timex watches that kept better time than that. That was over a period of years, when I was the boss in charge of Starting time, time to quit, and lunch break. When I retired I quit wearing a watch, except for hunting. Here you have legal start and quit times, and you have to put on your tag the time you shot an animal. miles

Mow1954: I thought this was a joke!
But it appears to be "real"?
If real I have to ask you... why?

Yep $300, and they are selling a lot of them. I will assure you that other watches don't keep better time than this one. Just that Slow watches are a little more difficult to read with precision. Some people are Timex guys and some appreciate a Swiss made watch.

As to why have a one hand watch, I guess the answer is "why not?" It is different, unique and not like everyone elses watch.

In case anyone is wondering, the time on the watch Im selling is 10:15am. Same as it would be on a Timex....

This would be cool to show this watch to my two high school age grand kids . I can see the blank stares already.
Pretty much like reading dial calipers.

Is it really slow, or just a military 24 hour watch....

Love the 24 hr dial

On the website, they explain that Slow is a lifestyle.... The hand makes one revolution every 24 hours, so I guess it is slow compared to a "normal" 12 hour watch

Interesting idea.Smartest Man I ever worked for would never set a watch. Electronic back in the 80s had buttons to push and such. Often a pain. 2 hours and 40 minutes slow. The way he bought it.
I asked him why he didn’t learn to set it. “Why not learn something useful? I can already add”

And that’s what he did.

And I mean speaks 7 languages and one patent with 1/2 a billion in sales smart. Very practical.

Now I want one. ………

I kind of love it, wish I wasn’t so attached to my new Apple Watch!

Never owned a watch. No need for one.

Mow, as usual, you have great taste. I'm with you on the Swiss thing. I'm lost when my TAG goes in for an oil change. The "slow" is a great idea.
