Fine Watches: The Timex Nail Watch

If you were born before 1990, chances are, you’ve experienced the same technology shocks as me. First it was the typewriter, then the fax, then computers, then portable laptop computers. I consider myself an old man, my grandchildren remind me of that. They don’t tell me directly to my face, but when I saw my youngest grandson playing with one of those newfangled iPhones while sitting in his stroller the other day, I knew. Now I’m a traditional man and I like traditional things, so when it comes to something as mundane and common as a watch, I like sensible fine watches that are durable and easy to use. Not one of those with 20 buttons on the side and glows in the dark. A nice and sensible luxury watch. Well little did I know what I would find when I went on the internet for the first time in a month. Some crazy geniuses have made the world’s smallest watch—one that you can wear on your fingernail.

Two watch companies Timex and Core77 have recently collaborated to introduce one of the world’s smallest watches, the Timex Nail Watch.

Crazy, I know, but there’s really no stopping these kids from making all sorts of crazy gadgets. It sounds like something one of my grandkids would get me, of course, if they ever did, they’d have to buy me some stronger reading glasses to ever read the time on my fingernail.
