It might not help put the world in your hands, but the WN-2 Earth Watch does a great job of putting the world on your wrist; and it even lets you know what time it is on other parts of the globe.
You might forget to actually check the time when you look at the 1/580 million scale model of the Earth’s northern hemisphere as it rotates under the glass dome, spinning through one complete revolution once a day just like the Earth does…seeing the world rotate on your arm just isn’t something you see every day.
The clean, etched bezel displays hours and minutes, while the top-down view of the planet provides a visually appealing way to see what time it is anywhere in the world. You can even remove the core module from the watch and use it as a desk clock!
