THE REMINDER
The REMINDER is a timepiece to wear every day. Reminding the person who wears it, and the people who see it about the problems of both pollution and global warming.
The artists philosophy about the timepiece:
The Reminder is an exquisite watch crafted to help you keep time and reflect on the effects of climate change. It is a statement piece featuring a rusty rough surface, just as the dirty surface of the earth, underneath the surface there are laser cut out shiny gold details; The fantastic planet we have and love! And a sapphire glass covering the date display with a cyclop lens to remind that every day is important, the only number is 11 showing that there is still time for changes, as to say in ”The eleventh hour”.
The design subtly alludes to global issues to remind the wearer about the importance of environmental protection. Its thought-provoking strap is printed with inspiring words about the need to take action against pollution and global warming. An exquisite earth map on the crown completes the design.
When you see the watch from a distance it looks clean and at short distance you find it very interesting and easily starts a conversation.

The Perfect World Foundation was founded in Sweden in 2010 by Ragnhild (Rags) & Lars Jacobsson after many years of work and private support of animal and nature projects in different areas around the world.
