If you have a lot of questions and not enough answers, why not try the Foretell Watch on for size? This quirky chronometer is a two-layered accessory that functions as a timepiece and as a [predictive electronic device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic8ball).

Designed by Daniel Will-Harris, the CKIE wristwatch is made in a basic black with the option of a [leather or a stainless mesh band](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-crw0011jr). The [numberless dial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dozen-clock) with its pair of hands is hidden behind a translucent blue face that acts as a display for your destiny. Every five seconds the Foretell Watch will illuminate a response such as "Hell No!" or "Say Yes," or "Why Not?". If you have trouble making decisions throughout your day, this item may enhance your life with the randomness of chance.
