Based on a limited edition version of the HM3 called "The Frog," (due to the eye-like hour and minute indicator domes), the MoonMachine watch incorporates Sarpaneva's iconic grimacing moon face (you can hear more about Sarpaneva here) which he uses for his moon phase indicators.
They replicated GenomEUtwin's heritability estimate using the 60 minute cut-off, but as predicted, found no significant heritability for the 150 minute indicator; the best-fitting model included only shared (28%) and unique (72%) environmental influences [12].
Furnished with tiny metal balls to indicate the hours and with minute indicators visible in lateral sapphire tubes, the piece was estimated at €230,000 to €290,000.
Each is permanently set to 00 00; the hour and minute indicators turn over, but time marches in place.
In British society, which is particularly good at picking up on minute indicators of class and status, the glottal stop has what linguists call "social salience".
It followed in May with "The Frog," a variation of its HM3 watch, where it re-designed the hour and minute indicators as raised domes, like a frog's protruding eyes, giving the watch owner a wider view of the time without having to turn the wrist.
The red-hued hands in the version I reviewed (there's also a black on white model) stand out strongly against the black face, as do the fine but easily readable white minute and hour indicators.
In two minutes the indicator would display a plus sign for "pregnant" or a minus sign for "not pregnant".
Five minutes are indicators, not proofs.
Dr. Heasler said researchers use the park's geologic wonders, like Old Faithful — which spews steam and water on schedule, plus or minus 10 minutes — as indicators of the effects of quake activity.
