Basic White or Basic Black with Hello Kitty digital clock
Digital clocks offer advantages and limitations compared to analog clocks: they are more accurate, since you can see exactly what time it is instead of just guessing the approximate position of the hands compared to the vaguely positioned numbers. If you like this feature, or prefer the modern aesthetic of digital watches, but also enjoy the playful sweetness of Kitty White, then the Hello Kitty Digital Watch brings the gentle kitty motif to the contemporary wristwatch.
Basic white and basic black are two of the most common colors in modern design. Peruse a modern designed kitchen, an airport terminal, or a contemporary sculpture gallery, and you’re likely to see plenty of striking uses for these two colors. (Of course, strictly speaking, they are not colors, but surface pigments that reflect or absorb all colors respectively.)
Black and white look good almost anywhere. They complement each other as well as any other colour, light or dark, rich and vibrant or subtle and understated. This is equally true for wristwatches made in one of these two shades. A black or white wristwatch can be worn for almost any occasion, from the front porch when you’re lazing around on a summer Saturday afternoon with a good novel and a glass of lemonade, to a very formal occasion like an important board meeting or a night at the opera.
The Hello Kitty digital clock makes good use of these colors. For the most part, each of the two variants of the watch are solid colors: pure, smooth white, or glossy black. This color appears on the watch face (which is mostly opaque), the body of the watch, the buttons used to set the time, set alarms and the like, and the tapering silicone straps, which are understated to preserve the sleek look of the watch.
Of course, none of these watches would be complete without the vivacious presence of Kitty White, and the kitty does appear on the watch. The “window” that allows you to look through the mostly opaque clock face is in the shape of Kitty White’s head, complete with bow and whiskers.
Positioned at a playful angle, the cutout shows you the large, easy-to-read digital numbers that keep you informed of the passage of invisible time. Wearing the watch in any of the colors allows you to keep your appointments while still remembering to look on the lighter side of life.
red collector’s tin
As is the case with many Kitty White watches, it comes with a red collector’s box. This tin is large enough to use for everything from keeping a supply of breath mints on hand to storing jewelry or other small but precious items in a place where they’ll be safe and quickly found when you need them.
Red with white accents, the box is mostly scarlet with a band of tiny white polka dots on the lid sleeve for an even more good-hearted, fizzy effect. As with the watches, Kitty White’s face graces the tin, though this time, fully rendered with eyes and a cute button nose, as well as her signature whiskers and bow. The white lettering below it reads “Hello Kitty” and gives the name of the watch’s maker.
The box measures 2 ¾” wide and 3 ½” tall, as well as 3 ¼” deep. It is nearly cubical and offers plenty of space for small but valuable items, or it can serve as a cute centerpiece for a shelf full of charming decorative items. The tin box is sturdy and well-glazed to protect the environment, but you should do your best to keep it dry and store it in a warm place, as tin sometimes deteriorates in the cold.
The Hello Kitty digital clock offers the ability to tell the time at a glance. These watches are a stylish and modern way to tell time, and the choice of black or white means that any of these watches will go perfectly with any outfit or occasion.
