How about a 24 hour single hander?
Speaking of 24 hour dial, I'm looking for a 24 hour watch with 12 on top, as a companion to my O&W Early Bird in the collection.

sorry only just spotted this thread Posted Image

24 hour, single hand, 24 on top for me please, 42 mm?

i really like the look of these single handers, but im put off with the fact that i would be explaining to my friends that no it isnt broken and yes its only supposed to have one hand, i also really like the idea of the 24hr single hander but the face would have to be very large to get the definition on the face to be able to see properly

Excellent looking watch, would it be possible to get one with roman numerals?

It took me a moment to work out how you read it!
Allow me a palm / forehead interface moment.

I have never had a one handed watch.

Does it take a while to get use to them?

Agree with others...like the minimalist appearance. Not sure if I would get bored with it, and not a big fan of chinese movements, as yet. Recall seeing another one hand watch from a high end watch co.

I thought this was a joke when I first read it, but it kept me awake last night thinking about it. The more I think about it the more I want one, I thought you'd really have to think about it in order to tell the time but on looking at the photos again (and again) I'm thinking it looks quite easy. How do other users get on with it?

I obtained one from a TWF member as I go back to Cornwall quite often. You don't need minutes hands in Cornwall.

Looked at Botta, their Uno 24 has the sort of definition you would need.

I would love to own a one handed watch, however as a school teacher, I need to know the time to within one minute (for lesson changeover). Shame because I think they are cool!
