Morbidly Realistic Timepieces

The Accurate Watch by Mr. Jones Keeps Time and Reality in Check

— February 22, 2013 — Fashion
In true fashion with the renowned company's stellar designs, The Accurate Watch by Mr. Jones helps the wearer remember their own mortality.

Emblazoned with the work 'Remember' on the hour hand and 'You Will Die' on the minute hand, The Accurate Watch by Mr. Jones is precisely that as well as a little bit of a downer. With that said, the timepiece is exquisitely crafted to perfection with a stark black face and white text, a sumptuous black leather strap and reminds people on a daily basis to never forget that their time on earth is limited.

It might seem like a strange way of remembering to "seize the day", but The Accurate Watch by Mr. Jones is a suave way to stay on your toes and a helpful reminder to make the most out of every minute.
