Hopefully TF saw the potential if others did not! ;) I can understand some people finding the time telling method takes a little time to get used too, but this concept deserves more votes and comments than it recieved!

Fair enough if you aren't a fan of the shape. That's useful to know. I'm glad you like the dots in the middle, though. About a split case, I'd prefer to stick to minimalism, so, if anything, maybe just a subtle a surface finish change like matte vs. glossy or brushed vs. smooth. The dots in the middle serve the functional purpose, as you pointed out. Thanks for your support :) Thanks for your feedback, Sam. Fair enough if you aren’t a fan of the shape. That’s useful to know.

Works intuitively, if one is familiar with analog watches. I'm not a fan of the elliptically aligned dots in a reactangle. There are dozens of ways to translate this reading idea. Assuming, TF would pick a sexy one, I won't let my taste influence the rating much ;) The center dot's for the extra minutes are cool though. They are like a symmetry axis and remind the wearer of how to read the watch. Maybe you could have played more with the symmetry theme... a split case for example, created by a gap or an edge or a material change. Anyway, good luck for this one Logan! I'm still crossing fingers for my favorites of your designs!! I like the idea of encryption here. Works intuitively, if one is familiar with analog watches.

Glad you are able to read it so easily. The design isn't meant to be difficult, just different. Thanks, befrey. Glad you are able to read it so easily.

Time reading takes a bit of getting used to but it does work with a little practice. This has potential 5/Y Best of Luck I like the basic principle and the idea of inverting the dots to increase their use/reduce the number of holes required.
