It's easy to count down the seconds until the work day ends, but Happy Hour Timepieces now has a happy hour watch that lets time fly when the party gets wild. Happy Hour describes the Ish happy hour watch as "'[approximate' time telling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dozen-clock) at its finest".

The Ish happy hour watch is crafted from stainless steel and has a genuine leather strap and a patented Happy Hour buckle. The clock face is made from [frosted glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hublot-mp17-meca10) and has a window over the 5 o'clock mark, because 5 o'clock is the only hour that matters for the happy hour enthusiasts.

This happy hour watch is attuned to the office culture of most 20-somethings who watch the minutes tick away at the office each day, until they are free at 5 o'clock. Fashionable and creative, the Ish happy hour watch is the perfect accessory for any eager party animal.
