It’s a simple question: “What time is it?”

You look at your watch and see your step count, how many calories you burned on that bike ride you went on earlier, when your next period is due to arrive, what the temperature is outside, and more, but cannot figure out how to get back to the main screen that tells you the time. Sigh. Remember the good ol’ days when watches told the time — and only the time?

If you’re a minimalist looking for a watch that’s modern and sleek, but without all the bells and whistles of a smartwatch, check out the Blade Automatic Watch with a 42H Power Reserve, on sale for a limited time.

The Blade watch is a luxury automatic chronograph watch. It’s handcrafted with attention to detail and features a stainless steel watch face and a genuine leather band. In other words, it’s built to last. But it’s most distinguishing feature is its labor-intensive, complex automatic movement. 

The innovative concept of Japanese automatic movement basically means it doesn’t require manual winding like a quartz movement watch. Automatic movement, also known as a self-winding movement, is outfitted with a rotor. The natural motion of one’s wrist makes the rotor move around, which then winds the mainspring. As long as you’re wearing it, it’ll continue to tick. Heck, it even has a 42-hour power reserve, so it’ll keep ticking for nearly two full days after you take it off.

It also features a signature one-second spin turbine, rather than a seconds hand, that’s completely mesmerizing. It’s that thing that looks like a rotating disc with a circle of blades. Check it out:

Automatic watch movement is more revered by watch aficionados than quartz, as they’re more complex and intricately made. Plus, they’re great conversation starters. Whether you’re a watch aficionado looking for a new addition to your collection or you’re sick of how extra smartwatches can be, the Zinvo Blade Automatic Watch is a worthy investment — especially since it’s on sale. 

Regularly $289, you can slash over 20% off and get the Blade Automatic Watch with 42H Power Reserve in phantom, gunmetal, nitro, or outlaw.
