Have you ever climbed a mountain and seen all that immense space beneath you that opens up a beautiful panorama to your gaze? Or perhaps being on the beach in the evening and observing the immensity of a starry sky?
What is bigger than us sometimes scares us, sometimes escapes us, we lose control of it, we admire its beauty, we contemplate its perfection. Yet we always have the desire to fully understand it but without succeeding, to chase it without catching it.
If you add to this sensation that of time passing and the fact that only after a few hours, the same immense panorama has a totally different flavor when the sun goes down, or when the moon rises, you realize how much harmony there is around us that is made to delight us if we would only take the time to contemplate it.
And yet sometimes time slips away, or we are in the wrong place at the wrong time and perhaps we miss the beauty of something because we were not in the right place at the right time.
The weather is a powerful force that moves everything in a continuous direction of change. Time passes, they say, but is it really like that?
Clocks to mark time
There are wonderful tools that have always fascinated us and that have regulated our lives for centuries, also giving greater stability to our spaces and our time!
Let's talk about watches. Man has always tried to establish the passage of time as accurately as possible.
He did it by tying everything to stable, daily, perennial, trustworthy things, such as the vital stars for us: the sun and the moon.
Thus man followed the rhythms, marked the phases and thanks to them he discovered the constancy, the precision, the exact rotation that for example the Earth makes on itself and around the Sun and that which the Moon makes on itself and around the Earth.
He referred to the immovable decree that reigns in the heavens, thus bringing greater certainty here on Earth, greater awareness of what for example we call day and night, of what we call dawn and dusk, of what we call seasons.
The perception of time
It's true, time is a subjective concept and each of us also experiences it in a way and to the extent that we perceive a different reality. Just think of what happens in the same moments or minutes while at the same time a person is about to cross a busy road and at the same time an engaged couple are tenderly kissing in a park.
Each of them's perception of time will be different dictated by what they are doing and also from the surrounding environment. Yes, because, if in one case time is also rushed mentally due to the fear of an accident, on the other it seems to last an eternity because it is linked to a pleasure.
But how nice it is when you can in a certain way take control of the situation, control, manage and conserve time. What helps us do it best are simple tools that most of us have with us today, often on our wrists: watches.
Our concept of time is often contained therein. Thanks to them we outline our days, our daily commitments, our lives, our deadlines, but also the awaited moments, the pleasant ones... the ones we 'can't wait' to experience.
Organizing, knowing that everything is in its place in the day certainly helps us to live it to the fullest, and watches can remind us that the long-awaited moment of a romantic date is just around the corner, or that the working day is about to end and you can finally give free time; that it's time to have a cup of coffee in good company, that it's time to watch a good film, that it's time to take a walk near the sea or immersed in nature.
Philip Watch: elegance and refinement beyond time
But watches are not just that. Watches as well as being our connection with time and space they are also part of our way of expressing ourselves. They can talk about us. If chosen with taste they add class and elegance to our look. They can speak to our sophistication.
Some companies have been working for years to make this wonderful instrument not only beautiful and attractive, but also elegant and refined.
Let's talk for example about Philip Watch watches which for years have reflected the work of a company that builds models with unique, particular characteristics, with precious and carefully chosen materials, such as stainless steel or high quality leather for its straps, sapphire glass, components in gold, ceramic or titanium... all designed to make our wrist embellished with what is more than a simple object, but pure elegance.
In conclusion we can say that living time well is a duty, but observing and contemplating it in space, like on the wrist admiring a beautiful watch, is certainly a pleasure!
