Memento Mori Watch

In London you can find a cool watches collection designed by Crispin Jones in a very unique way, being exactly the opposite of “stylish”, “luxury” and “trendy”.
They are simple, classic looking and shocking, forming one of the coolest brands on the market, Mr Jones Watches.

The Accurate wrist watch as you can see is always remembering you that you will die with its two hands and a mirrored glass so you will know who it is referring at.
Inspired by the “memento mori” Latin expression, it makes you aware of the fact that life has an end like all the other things around us and maybe this will make you appreciate it more with every second that passes.



But let’s take a look at the specifications!
The Accurate has a stainless steel case, black leather strap with white stitching, measures 35 mm in diameter and uses a single jewel quartz mechanism.
It is also waterproof to resist at up to 5 ATM under water.
Coming with a 12 months guarantee, the death watch costs $140 plus shipping.



"Today everyone has a mobile phone to do the really functional timekeeping, this means that the wristwatch is free to do something a bit different. The watches I design reflect and comment on society, both on the role that time plays in all our lives and also on the social impact of technology. Of course because I would like people to wear these watches, I also work very hard to make them beautiful objects in their own right." Crispin Jones
