Buddhist texts indicate that we have been re-incarnated since "beginningless time". This clock is an alternative to the Big Bang Clock which assumes a universe with bounded time (at least on one end).
The Buddhist wristwatch has a single hand that sweeps around the perimiter in a smooth, continuous
motion. There are no tick marks or labels, as the time is always Now.

You could just paint the hand on. |
|

No, the hand should move, to indicate the passage of
time, but the label saying "Now" should move around the
watch face with the hand. |
|

You can buy plenty of wristwatches with no tick marks or numbers. |

I prefer to call the govt. service on the phone that says: |
|
| |
"At the third stroke it will be now, precisely." |
|
| |
......Or buy a parrot that can say "now" for a talking-buddha-clock! |
|

can we have a super strong shaolin monk version you can break stacks of tiles with? |
|

I definately think that the hand should move slightly faster than you would expect a "seconds" hand to move this would emphisise the futility of trying to understand it. If it is any consequence I have an Azan Alarm Clock that I bought for a joke on holiday. |
