If you’re one who relies on fortune telling to pass your days, you’d love to have a watch that can tell you the hours ahead are good or bad. Swiss watchmaker Borgeaud has now teamed up with Indian fortune tellers, have created a watch that is claimed to be able to predict the future.
The Borgeaud watch automatically displays a daily 90-minute period called the Raju Kaal, which is believed to be the worst time to make important decisions or start new projects. The watch face has a bedpan-shaped section, which will turn brown when the worst time is about to strike and turn back to its normal color when the Raju Kaal is over and “dark astral forces” have left the area.
The watch maker claims this watch is useful to warn anyone when misfortune is about to strike. The company will be producing only limited number of these fortune telling watches – there will be 500 for women and 150 for men and each will cost £1,500 or USD $2,000 each. The company seems to be hinting women will have higher chance to get bad days to strike.
