WWW: World's Weirdest Watch

Hmm, well there's something weird for you...

I don't consider myself extraordinarily slow or not capable of thinking fast (and speaking faster =), but sometimes there are moments where you just want to know the time... in this very second, without thinking involved.

"Why?" - do you really want to know? Then try making any sense of the time shown on the watches below:

The manufacturing company, SeaHope, has other weird models on their website, take a look to find out... =)))

BTW: It's two blocks, two blocks, nine blocks now.
