The BPM Watch marks the fourth timepiece in the Mr. Jones Watches collaboration project. Designer Crispin Jones has undertaken the task of designing watches with five individuals who "have an interesting relationship to time." This one in particular centers around nocturnal DJ Tom Middleton.
As a tribute to this DJ, the BPM Watch actually counts the beats-per-minute for the music he spins. The face itself features a minimalistic design that makes it easy to read. Check out the video above to learn how to use it properly.
