Hand Worn Watch Apparatus
US Patent:
7959351, Jun 14, 2011
Filed:
Nov 3, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/611526
Inventors:
Derek B. Thorpe - Jacksonville FL, US
International Classification:
G04B 37/12, A44C 5/00
US Classification:
368282, 368279, 224164, 224217
Abstract:
The hand worn watch apparatus provides a wrist band, an index band, and a thumb band for securing the pliable material to the delta area of a wearer's hand. Not only is the delta area a more comfortable and logical location, the area is larger than a typical wrist, whereby the apparatus can feature far more functions and electronics than a typical wristwatch. Further, a wearer does not have to practice elbow abduction and forearm pronation to read the display, use the controls or tell time. The apparatus is especially useful for those in sports as well as those driving a car. A user need not pronate the hand when engaged in sports and driving. And, a wearer's gold swing is not hindered by the apparatus. The apparatus is further designed to be noticed in making a fashion statement.
