With the unisex NOW Watch ($50) you will never again need to worry about running out of batteries or think about daylight saving time. It’s simply “the most accurate time piece ever invented”.
A timely reminder of the only moment that really matters - NOW. The NOW watch consists of reflective metallic lettering on a traditional watch face that rests on a black leather cuff band. The black unisex design fits all wrists on both men and women.

The crown is a case-back pusher to continue the uncluttered elegance of this style. The shiny stainless steel bracelet is designed to remain thin and comfortable wtih hidden links.
