NEW PRODUCT CONCEPT STATEMENT—BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION

We are pleased to present the “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch as invented by Thomas Brown. Conceptually speaking, this invention is a specially designed, open-fingered hand glove that features a working timepiece, digital, analog or digital/beeper design, sewn into the garment. Design intent is to provide active individuals with a more convenient means of wearing a watch, as opposed to on the wrist.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION/DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION

Being physical active is one of the most effective tools in increasing the health of the mind, body, and soul. Reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke, physical activity also helps to lower or control other risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, excess body weight, and diabetes. But the benefits do not stop there. A regular exercise regimen also makes one look and feel better, become stronger and more flexible, have more energy, and reduce stress and tension. As many Americans are aware of the physical and mental benefits afforded by regular exercise, they seek a plethora of ways to stay active. Whether jogging a few miles every morning, visiting the gym several times a week, joining a community baseball team, or hitting the mountain biking trails on the weekends, physical activity choices can range from low impact exercises to extreme sports participation.

While sports and exercises can be fun and satisfying activities that help to strengthen physical health, the constant demands of on-the-go living are always hovering in the background, even when engaging in recreation. People are constantly aware of time and the lack thereof, so hey find it necessary to sport a watch at all times. Yet, for active individuals, wearing a standard wristwatch can present a few drawbacks. Particularly, these expensive accessories can easily be torn away from the wrist when engaging in regimens such as weight lifting or contact sports. In addition, the perspiration that results from an intense workout can irritate the skin underneath a leather or metal watch band. To combat these problems, individual may remove their watches and place them in a pocket or gym bag; however, such actions can result in the timepiece being damages or even stolen.

Recognizing the potential for a product that would allow active consumers to comfortably and safely wear a timepiece while working out, Mr. Thomas Brown has conceived of a clever product he has aptly designated as the “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch. As the name implies, “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch is just that, a specially designed, open-fingered hand covering that incorporates a timepiece into the material of the garment. Fashioned of a breathable leather material with an elastic wristband for a secure fit, the glove itself could be offered in a one-size-fits-all configuration or in small, medium, and large designations to accommodate all users. Completely covering the palm and back of the hand, the “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch would feature “fingers” that extend up to the bottom knuckle joints of the wearer's fingers, leaving the top portion of the digits exposed. As an additional consideration, the glove could be made available in a variety of attractive colors and materials to appeal to individual tastes. Centrally located on the back portion of the glove, the compact, waterproof watch could be offered in either analog, digital, or digital with a beeper function, with the inner workings of the device containing all the required components germane to either method of timekeeping and beeper functions with the digital with beeper “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch. The inventor has also suggested that a top watch mechanism could be incorporated within the timepiece. This product could be powered by a battery source such as the micro alkaline or silver oxide cell batteries commonly found in wristwatches.

Use of the “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch would be very simple and straightforward. First, the user would select a unit based on personal preference of color and/or style and preference of type of unit; analog, digital or digital beeper. The units will display time and date. By way of example, a soccer player may opt for a navy blue “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch to match his team uniform. Similarly, a housewife may prefer a pink-colored unit to accentuate her new jogging suit. If the digital beeper unit is chosen, the user will connect to beeper service provider. This watch will display time, and date and when a person calls the user, telephone number of person calling will be displayed.

Next, the user would simply don the “Time On Your Hand” Short Finger Glove Watch in the same manner as a regular glove. While engaging in the chosen physical activity, the users need only to glance at the back of the gloved hand.
