The design of the seven "Mr Jones Watches", by Crispin Jones, was inspired by investigation into the cultural messages that the watch expresses.What if the watch could express some of the negative aspects of the wearer’s personality? And how can the watch represent time in a different way?
- The Fallax watch projects the wearer’s honesty to other people. It contains a lie-detector which is attached via a pair of finger straps. If the watch detects a lie then the display flashes up the word "LIES".
- Adsiduus makes either positive suggestions, "You are an amazing person Twelve-fifty-two", or negative "All your friends hate you Nine-fifty-five". Over time these bring about a change in the wearer’s personality.
