Abstract

An ergonomic watch case, time display and setting crown are provided, with the case shaped generally in the form of an obtuse triangle and attached to a watch strap. A horizontal bisector through the case and time display is offset by a predetermined angle out of perpendicularity with a vertical bisector through the watch strap to improve alignment with a viewer's line of sight when reading the time. An apical setting crown is located at the apex of one of the two acute angles of the case to improve rotation of a crown knob in either direction with minimal resistance or obstruction from the watch case. A chime melody and icon are provided to sound a pleasing wake up call or other time set to be heard.
