“Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it you can never get it back.” - Harvey MacKay

However, being a lowly slave close to the bottom of the corporate pecking order, I can only dream and aspire to owning that particular pretty piece of horology.

In the meantime though, I can please myself with this objet d'art :

Issey Miyake TWELVE

I love it's minimalist design and how its beauty lies in simplicity and elegance.
