Botta Uno Automatik One-Handed Watch by Watchismo
If you thought the Mondaine that Ami wrote about yesterday was minimalist, then you haven't seen this new Botta.
Get with the times man and check out the Uno, a one-handed watch. Two hands? That's just so second millennium. German watchmaker Klaus Botta's design makes seconds and minutes irrelevant; with the Uno, be on time-ish.
The slacker's watch is available in mechanical automatic (€490)or quartz (starting at €229) from Botta, though non-German speakers may have a tough time deciphering.
