The best things in life lack time. Happiness is often a state in which time seems to have stood still and hands and figures have ceased to move in a wholly present now. No Time Bracelet by Katrin Greiling is a personal ornament that looks like a watch. It does not show the time, merely the contours of the works like a shining bracelet.
“I designed the No Time Bracelet in Dubai where I worked for some years. In an environment where there are lots of status symbols to be worn on the wrist, my cheap, digital, plastic watch suddenly became an item for discussion. I designed a piece of jewellery in gold, based on my old wristwatch, that turned everything upside down. The simple item suddenly became expensive, but with a twist.”
The No Time Bracelet has a dual function. It is a personal ornament as well as being a subtly ironic commentary on the cult of beauty and status of our own epoch in which the wristwatch has a prominent place. The metal bracelet is available in gold or rhodium plate.
