This is one watch I will not buy.
As Warren Buffett said on CNBC last year "If I could choose when or where I will die, I would choose where and make sure as hell I never go there."

Tikker - the death watch.
...that counts down your life (but in a good way!) The death watch that counts down your life. What a sinister idea. While actuaries have ways of calculating life expectancy who would want such a device on your wrist. I guess they watch has a way to input...
Have you seen the movie "In Time" w/ Justin Timberlake
That's where the last picture comes from. It's a pretty good movie and concept IMO. Cheers, Anthony ...

Just this morning
during my coffee time in favorite bar I read in local newspaper about it Apparently the sale numbers are not good :) Carpe diem watch for sure Best D
Been there. Done it. It does not work.
7 years ago, I consulted 16 doctors (including myself) and our considered opinion was that I would be dead within a year. We were wrong. I bought a watch without date display to celebrate not having to count the days until the next time I die....... Regar...
LOL Melvyn, good on you and for all of us:).....
As I wrote before reading your posting, this has to be THE least accurate watch on the market:):)...and by far:) Cheers Francois
What a bizarre idea Bill! But at least it has something.....
different. This watch will at least be 99.999999999999999999999999999999999% outside the COSC specifications, so it is probably the least precise watch in the world. Not bad if one wants to enter the Guinness Book of Records:):) Cheers Francois from Down ...
How do they calculate your 'end date'?
Based on average life expectancy? Can you choose it? 100 years perhaps? Actually this watch appeals to me. A reminder the seize the day. Andrew Carpe diem
NO thank you unless I can reprogram the display to remove the death count...
or add 100 years to it.
No.
No, just no. Why would I want to know this? I did not order my coffin either. I'll rather get the Romain Jerôme-Tourbillon which is not telling me the time...
Oh Goodness. How awful.
Here's one watch I will not buy. Oh goodness. Not the statement I'm trying to give. Might not be a bad idea, but it certainly is not one that is universally appealing.
Another thought ...
Would people react more positively to this idea/watch if they programmed a different end point to death? Perhaps a 12 month or 10 year countdown? Helping to set and reach goals. Reminding you of the passing of time? I tend to think of mechanical watches a...
Not for me
If I'm going to die at a certain date or time, I'd rather not know... - AT
How does it know your time left on earth?
That's the part that is impossible to know... therefore... sort of pointless? But I appreciate the premise. If it knew how long you really had alive, it would probably lead to a sense of hurrying all the time, even more than we already do. Or you might li...
I like this very much:
"the beauty of normal watches is the sense of being a part of all time, come and gone, and to be. Of time--less-ness. Of eternity.' May I quote you? Thanks very much, Mostel. Andrew
