Nice watch, isn't it?
It is actually a giant watch! Here is Phil standing beside it to give perspective.
We saw it in the art gallery of a college art department.
The band is made of wood.
Do you wear a watch? I think they are becoming a thing of the past, because most people tell the time on their cell phones now. Will cell phones make watches obsolete?

as a reminder — if you don't watch carefully what you do with your time, it
will slip away from you.”

wind, for each hour it brings something new... but who can understand and
measure its sharp breath, its mystery and its design?”

Wow! That is a giant watch. I no longer wear a watch, have been relying on the cell phone when I want to see the time.
I have a few watches at home and I seldom wear them unless I go for long trips. That is a really giant watch over there!
Wow, that is giant. I haven't worn a watch in a very long time. Now you see people with smart watches that do way more than just tell time
I read quite a while ago that kids don't learn how to read a clock.
That is one giant and beautiful watch!
I feel naked without a watch....
I wear a smart watch, but I'm glad it's not nearly as big as this one.
I wear a watch when going out because i leave my phone in the car, i don't shop with it. i do take it in doc offices if i have to wait. this watch is for sure a work of art, i would not want to meet the man who could wear it. ha ha. love that ship
Yes, I wear a watch... my mother's, actually. :-) I love this wooden watch. It really is a work of art! ~Andrea xoxo
Oh my that is a HUGE watch! lol
I still wear a watch - do you?
I don't wear a watch, but my husband does.
That's a big one!
I have some watches but I haven't worn one in years!!
I never wear my watch at home, but put I always put it on when I go out. I find a wristwatch a lot more convenient than checking the time on the phone when I'm out walking. Even if I do always try to remember to take the phone with me (for emergencies), I don't normally use the phone much when I'm out - except sometimes as camera, if I don't have my other camera with me. Usually it remains buried deep in my handbag.
I came here to answer your covid vaccine question. I'm supposed to get my second shot on Saturday, but I have't heard from the hospital. Last time the called. I don't have an appointment confirmed so will call them tomorrow.
I looked more at Phil than at the watch, such a nice looking man. But the watch is cool too. I never liked to wear a watch or a bracelet, so having the time on my phone works very well for me. That said, I like old clocks. There are different names for different timepieces in Sweden: clock is klocka, which is close; wrist watch was armbandsur, now probably changed to klocka as well, cause it sounds awfully ancient, but what do I know. Have you had your vaccine yet?
I just love Fine Workmanship like that.
I always wanted to do creations with wood..but alas..I never did. I love the smell of going in a lumber yard and fresh cut wood.

What a fabulous wooden watch thanks for sharing it.

That is a huge watch. Yes, I am not ready for my day until my watch is on my arm.
That is one big watch! It's really beautifully made.
I need a watch on too.
Thanks for the warm re-welcome...oh my the watch/art is just awesome!
I like this watch very much. How nice to see Phil in the photo. I don’t wear a watch any more though I still keep my old one safely tucked away.
I have worn a watch pretty much every day of my adult life! Now I wear a iwatch which connects to my phone so I can see pretty much everything on my phone with out actually looking at my phone! Crazy! I feel naked with I don[t wear it!
Wow, that is some enormous watch.
I still own a watch, but rarely wear it anymore.
I had not worn a wristwatch in more years than I can remember. Then I became aware in recent years of a ladies' watch by Bulova called the Rubaiyat. Since it had a poetic name and comes in many versions, some of which are quite beautiful, I picked one out and put it on my ever-changing wish list. My family bought it for me for my birthday last year and I am amazed at how much I enjoy wearing it. It's somewhat chunky so I was afraid it would interfere with my bracelets, of which I wear several. But no! It is comfortable and stylish and I just love having the time on my arm. xoxo
