We’ve all been there. Rushed out of the house, gotten on the road and then realisedour phone is back home quietly perched on the kitchen table waiting to be picked up by you. That sinking feeling hits the pit of your stomach upon this realisation. You start to question yourself: Do you go back to retrieve it or forget about it? After all you’ve survived without a mobile phone before you bought one and you can again. For one day. “Can I?”
And when you do spend the day without your phone, you become fully aware of how much you relied upon it. Not just for texting and calling. Not just for listening to music and social media updates, but for checking the time.
Sounds so
simple but without time telling us where in the day we are, where we are meant
to be, we drift and become lost.
Time is everywhere. It’s on clocks in our homes, vehicles and place of work. It is stamped on receipts, tickets and on our food and drinks. It’s announced on the TV, on the radio and in airports. Yet how often do we truly take notice this? Not very often would be the answer. We hear the time being announced but sometimes it doesn’t sink in properly. We see the time and acknowledge it, but moments later, we have forgotten and have to check the time again.
Before relying
on gadgets telling us the current time on their displays, we had watches. And
we still have watches. Watches date back as far as the 15th century
with German craftsman Peter Henlein being often credited as the inventor of the
watch. They have evolved in design over time from cylindrical brass boxes to
pocket watches and to the simply-styled wrist watches we are familiar with
today.
Our business
was established in 1980 and we have been online since 2008 developing a
reputation for offering quality products at competitive prices. We stock a wide range of branded watches online; Casio, Sekonda, Henley and Seiko - to name a
few. With Christmas only a couple of weeks away, we suggest giving the gift of
time for yourself or your loved one.
Attaching a
watch to ones wrist is a habit quickly integrated into a daily routine. More
often than not, a naked wrist is noticed quicker than a phone left behind on
the table.
With leather, metal and military straps, and expandable bracelets the choice to choose from is endless.
We have a range
of branded watches for men, ladies digital watches and a small range of
easy-to-read watches for the kids; you really are spoilt for choice.
It is often thought, that the giver of a watch is thinking of the recipient from time to time or minutes to minutes.
We can’t think of anything more personal to give as a gift this Christmas.
