I love this. But part of me wants the rings to rotate the other direction. I don't know why. It's kind of like scrolling I guess, is the content moving one way, or is the view window moving the other way.

By rotating counter clock wise, the information (the current time) advances clockwise. I don't know if I'd like it better the other way, but a certain part of me is so used to seeing the actual mechanical movement be clockwise, that I want the rings to move clockwise.

Am I alone in this?




That would feel wrong to me. If it rotated that way, when looking at the rings, the future would be on the left, and the past on the right.
