 I took some time on The Debbie Nigro Show this week to talk about TIME, not the magazine—though that would be fun—but the concept of time, how we use it, and about a mind-blowing new invention that's shaking up the world of luxury watches to display time. This one's a game-changer!  I was scrolling through Instagram when I spot a post from my friend Rob Weintraub, manager of Manfredi Jewels in Greenwich, CT. Now, if you love watches—or just admire fine craftsmanship—Manfredi is the place to know about. (I know this firsthand because I was so impressed with owner Roberto's expertise and his entrepreneurial journey, I encouraged him to let me tell his story to the world which we did in an 8-part series of podcast interviews called ‘The Rare Watch Man' on his website ManfrediJewels.com.)  Anyway, what I saw on Instagram wasn't just any post. It was something I'd never seen before. A watch. On a wall. As a CLOCK. Wait, what?   Introducing WOW by KERIS  If you own a stunning luxury watch, (or a have a watch collection) you likely only wear one 2% of the time? That's the reason the folks at WOW by Keris created an invention that could help you enjoy your watch a lot more of the time.  WOW is a sleek, high-tech display that turns your luxury wristwatch into wall art—and a fully functional wall clock! You simply slide your watch into the side of the device, and voilà! It's projected onto a beautiful screen, showing off every intricate detail of its craftsmanship.  Rob discovered this genius invention at Watches and Wonders, the biggest watch exhibition in the world, held annually in Geneva, Switzerland. Among all the glitzy timepieces and innovations, WOW was the standout. And guess what? Manfredi Jewels is one of only two places in the entire United States where you can get it!   Why Watch Lovers Might Love This   ·      Showcase Your Collection – Why let your luxury watches sit in a drawer when you can put them on display? ·      Functional + Beautiful – It's not just a statement piece—it actually tells time! ·      A Worthy Investment – High-end watches appreciate n value. Now, you can enjoy them every day.   ·      Customizable to Your Style – Available in multiple finishes or match it to any Pantone color to blend seamlessly into your home.   How Much Does WOW Cost? The base model is $5,990, and if you want a custom color or stand, you can upgrade for a bit more. Orders take about 6-8 weeks, but Manfredi has some in stock now if you're ready to take your watch obsession to the next level.   Want to See It in Action? Head over to the Manfredi Jewels store on Greenwich Avenue in Greenwich, CT. Big thanks to Rob Weintraub for joining me —and for always keeping an eye on the latest and greatest in the watch world.   Enjoy this podcast of our live conversation on The Debbie Nigro Show.
