# Pretend Watches Denise Reytan Makes ‘t1mepeace' for Worry-Free Days By Rachel | Published 2009-05-26 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/denise-reytan-t1mepeace References: [designboom](http://www.designboom.com/weblog/cat/8/view/6499/denise-reytan-t1mepeace.html) & [reytan.de](http://www.reytan.de/) Denise Reytan has made watches a little less practical, but a little less stress-inducing. Her latest [jewelry design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/type-8-daniel-engelberg), the 't1mepeace' (oh, clever) is made entirely out of stainless steel. The 't1mepeace' is shaped to look like a regular watch, but is non-operational. Denise Reytan made it in hopes people will wear it in place of their regular watch and thereby will forget what time it is and enjoy life. **Implications** - Consumers are looking for products that provide a sense of release from the stresses of everyday life, and these pretend timepieces provide a [fashionable accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crw001g9jr) without the pressure of time constraints. Using the familiarity from a traditional product and altering it slightly to address specific consumer desires is a great way for companies to sell their products. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/watches) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Stress-relief Products:** Opportunity to create products that offer a sense of release from everyday stress. - **Fashionable Accessories:** Potential for designing accessories that serve a purpose beyond their traditional function. - **Altered Traditional Products:** Chance to modify traditional products to better align with consumer desires. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Jewelry:** Opportunity for jewelry designers to create fashionable accessories with unique features. - **Wellness Industry:** Potential for stress-relief product manufacturers to tap into the growing wellness market. - **Consumer Goods:** Space for companies to innovate and modify traditional products based on changing consumer needs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Meditative Vibrating Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stund-watch.md) - [Stress-Reducing Screenless Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nowatch.md) - [Intentionally Foggy Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kehai-clock.md) - [Global Timezone Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nik-bentel-studio.md) - [Half-Hour Timepiece Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arrowatch.md) - [Abstract Artwork-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ode-to-delaunay-watch.md) - [Egg-Shaped Meditation Timers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/donha-egg.md) - [Empowering Marijuana-Inspired Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timex-x-jacquie-aiche.md) - [Modernized Vintage Wristwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-alarm-clock-wristwatch.md)
