Design submitted by David from UK.
After experimenting with 3D and optical illusions, David came up with this watch design which can either be viewed as pyramid or a tunnel.
Starting at the top and reading the 4 sides in a clockwise direction, you can read the time as if you were viewing a pyramid from above or standing at the entrance to a tunnel. Until you get used to reading the time, it helps to rotate your head from side to side.
The 3D effect gives the watch a depth and interest which most 2d models do not have. The watch would suit a range of colors and backgrounds.

Ooh, this is cool. Reminds me a bit of Spiderman or a retro video game. OH, I just realised how to read it! It took a few minutes to register. Love it now, a bit like going down a tunnel. Bravo.

Oh cool. It looks very cryptic at first sight and is so easy to read if you know how. Very good idea!

Tunnel vision rocks. Easy and effective way to encrypt time – good job David.

Interesting!
It looks a bit like a square version of the cryptic digitale watch for heather. The 3D feeling brings definitely something nice to it!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I really like Heathers watch and I can see what you mean about the 4 quadrants being similar but that wasn’t the angle I was coming from. I have recently been looking at new bathroom suites and was intrigued by various infinity mirror designs and their 3d effects. It inspired this design and several others I submitted over the weekend.

I actually had an easier time reading it counter-clockwise, without reading the instructions, the left one read “4:32”, and the right one said “19:56”, it works because the numbers are already in place (for 4 : 3 2, the 4 is at the left of the 3, and the two is on the right, just like in the picture).
It’s one of my favorite designs.

Thanks Tntec, i used a clockwise display because i thought most people would be more familiar with that format on a watch. However, you are quite right numerically it is more natural to read from left to right (in most countries) and in an alternative version of this watch, which i submitted this weekend, it has an offset perspective and the numbers do read the way you suggested. Hopefully it will make it to the blog.
