DUO24 - stylish watch with support for two time zones (+ discount)

Do you know about the problem of work in different time zones? The problem is not important if you live in Ukraine and work with Russian readers, as I do within Layfhakera. The difference with Moscow time there is 1... 2 hours depending on the time of year and keep it in your head snap. I even simple living in Croatia, to keep in mind the state of the time in Russia and Ukraine. But as soon as I started working with the United States, I realized that it is very difficult to become well appoint a conference-cola, get quick answers to emails and plan any operational communications. And the most difficult thing here to understand when your remote colleague asleep and when awake.

Recently we wrote about Watch German studio Botta DesignWho are able to solve this problem. So I decided to try them as a problem for me was the edge.

The model I chose is called DUO24. This steel watch with a double face that displays the time in two time zones. And most importantly, that there is no confusion, you do not experience when using such an unusual dial.

The outer set of numbers from 1 to 12 - this time local, and indicates one arrow. Yes, there is no minute hand and second hand, and at first it is unusual, but then you start to really do not understand why they are generally present in modern watches? Time can be determined very precisely and only one hand. Long live minimalism in everything.

The inner set of numbers - 24 hours. This is the second time zone, the sub for you. The beauty of the second dial is that it is divided into two areas - day and night. Now I'm rather cursory glance to see day or night with my colleagues in Palo Alto. Very convenient and practical and, again, nothing more.

By the way, DUO24 - waterproof, and it really helps me. The clock is not exactly diving (there is a special model), but yesterday I picked up from the sea bed to his son shell and realized that my watch was at a depth of about half a meter. Not flowed.

If you have the task to monitor the time in two time zones and just like to wear stylish gadgets, then DUO24 and other hours by German studio Botta Design should interest you. Especially because DUO24 received RedDot award - a prestigious award in industrial design industry! And the fact that all the company's watches made exclusively in Germany - a great rarity now.
