Designer Denis Guidone has designed four new watches, including this one called Ora Imprecisa.
The hour and minute hands of Ora Imprecisa (above) are represented by black and red squiggles respectively.
The Ora ilLegale clock (above) can be tilted on its base to set it forward one hour for summer time.
The red minute hand of Tempo Libero (below) is painted onto the rotating watch face, while the black hour hand uses a normal mechanism.
(Err)ore (above) has a red, jagged hand representing the passing minutes.
"Both hands together resemble a graphical gestures, a shape that changes as time passes," says Guidone.

not practical but also not beautiful..
Woohoo, more of the same!
Love em!
Are any of this bloke’s watches ever going to be available to actually buy?!
Damn.Want to have one of those….
cool!
The watches are beautiful concepts, but they simply cannot be made.
The IlLegale Clock is a nice idea, and can be made easily.
amazing…
all the watches and more new concepts will be shown in april during Milan design week 2009

Bah – I was fooled by the allure of the photoshoppery! Well played smoke and mirror, DGAtlier, well played!
Really interesting , when come out I will buy
The concept of turning the hands into a constantly changing graphic gesture is very nice. I would love to wear one if they also allowed the time to be read easily. Surely a good designer could find a way to mark the hours, so I can actually read the time, without ruining the design concept? In my opinion industrial design that fails to be useful is incomplete.
LOVE THE IRONY!
nice concept, shame these are literally just Illustrator drawings. Photos of an actual product would be nice.
Wonderful, another watch that you can’t tell time on. CMON at least indicate where the twelve is. Seriously, it’s a watch.
what it wud look like at 12?
WOW!!!
pretty cool
Just perfect. something different than usuals.
