Takes a Lickin' and Keeps On Tickin'

Many people don't realize that graphic design is around us everyday, and oftentimes we take it for granted.  This is my watch.  It's a Timex.  The weird shape is because it clips onto my belt-loop instead of going around my wrist.  The purpose of a watch is to tell you the time and to do so in a clear manner that allows you to glance at it and immediately know the time.  The typeface of the numbers has to be clear enough for that.  The numbers and the writing around the edge are all written in a way that allows for instant readability.
