    据科技博客Gizmodo文章,传统的表盘,指示时间的的数字都环绕在外周,指针指向外侧。但Projects Watches新推出的Nadir手表则与众不同地把这些数字紧密排列在表盘的中心,时针、分针、秒针统统都指向表盘的中心。

    假如你已经习惯了传统的表盘,可能会觉得这样特别的设计很不方便。但事实上这不是什么问题,表针会自然而然地指引你准确地读出当下的时间,这一点与传统的表盘并无二致。

    这款手表目前售价为125美元,对于能够凭借表针的位置快速读出时间的人来说,习惯这种新布局应该是轻而易举的事情。

    An Unusual Watch Whose Hands Point Inwards

    On a traditional analog watch face, you'll find the numbers indicating the hours encircling its outer circumference. But on Projects Watches' Nadir, they're all crammed onto a small disk in the middle, with the hands—which are embellished with arrow heads—pointing inwards toward the hours, minutes, and seconds.

    If you're used to a more traditional watch face, you might think the $125 Nadir could be a lot harder to read—but that's not the case. The arrowheads help subconsciously guide your eyes to the numbers on the inner circle. And the end of each hand actually points to where the numbers would be, were they located around the outer edge.

    So if you're used to quickly gauging the time based solely on the position of a watch's hands, getting used to this layout should be a breeze.
