Which Watch

 Separate watches for minute and hour hands
  (+8)(+8)
(+8) 		  [vote for,

Some people like to wear things on both wrists, not just one -- well, this handsome set of watches will do the trick. Which Watches come as a set of two component watches. You have to look at both wrists to tell the time, but that's the fun of it. You'll be eagerly waiting for the next stranger to ask you what time it is so you can show them off.

You can buy a premade Which Watch with both parts the same style, or mix and match your own. They are fashionable and functional.

Plus, suppose you have to go out just for a few minutes to grab something at the store. All you really need to take with you is a minute hand, since you already know what hour it is. It is senseless to carry around extra watch hands when you don't need them, and yet to leave your whole watch at home may seem disconcerting to you.

Hence: Which Watch. The watch wrists wish for(SM)

       Well, I like the idea. Take that Autoboner.

       I wanted to do this but for earrings. Minutes hanging off one ear, hours off the other.

       And seconds...?
—DrCurry, Jul 16 2003
   

       DC, there must be another place for seconds. Look in your pants or at your ankles.

       [DrC]....more? you want more?

       No + from me until you move to a real category...
—RayfordSteele, Jul 16 2003
   

       Maybe to balance out a seconds watch, add a date watch on the other wrist.

       Hmm..watches on gloves and shoes. Maybe measure the nanoseconds on your underpants lining...

       Is that a second hand in your pocket are are you just glad to see me?
Define: "second hand".

       Hour friend seems to have more of a minute, second-hand thumb there.

       ...watch this.....
—xandram, May 11 2006
   

       "I got your watch, right here"
"Oops. No, that's my big hand."
—reensure, May 11 2006
   

       I love this idea. I'd just put on one each day... chosen at random.
