Name of trick with watch hands reversed?
I'm trying to find a jeweler in NYC that will reverse the hands of a watch for me, no luck. Nobody wants the job. What is the name of this trick? Does anyone have a used one for sale? Is this still an item I can still find at a dealer?

I believe that Barrie Richardson described this in his first book. He might have more info there.

I think it's called "Richardson Watch" (after Barrie Richardson as stated above).
Did you think of just cutting the hour hand shorter than minute hand (if you can find a watch with a longish minute hand)?

Or rather, cutting the minute hand down to look like an hour hand (duh).
