Hey, guys! I haven't seen any buzz about this yet so I thought I'd post a little something.
Liam told me about this trick earlier this year and even though he didn't actually show it to me (didn't have a watch on him) I immediately new it would play big and thought it was brilliant. He said it would be coming out at some point through Vanishing, Inc. and it looks like it's finally here!
I think this is a great effect and really unique. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen this plot before! Liam has a devious mind and this is definitely one of his best ideas. Check out the demo on Vanishing, Inc. It's a killer effect.

Lee Smith told me about this a while ago, he is using it and says it gets brilliant reactions, what a lovely routine. Nice one Liam!

Performance looks great. The price seems very reasonable- $45.00! Usually these effects with a watch go for more than $100! I love the ending how the hands vanish off the clock- that is sweet! I might have to pick this one up and take the lashing from the wife! LOL

How much examination can the watch take? also, it says easy to do--is it self working or is there some sleight of hand?

Pretty much self working and after the effect they can examine everything for as long as they like.

This looks amazing! So much room to add some really great presentation to this. Liam is one of my favorite magicians, his work is always gold and extremely well thought out. I can guarantee that this is going to be ingenious and I can't wait to pick this up.

Wow, Liam has done it again. I remember Andi Gladwin showing me the concept for this a couple of years ago and I couldn't help but smile. You're in good 'hands' with this one guys. There's my pun for the day!

I fooled some of the best mentalists at the recent tabular mentis meeting with this. It really is a brilliant method and a fantastic effect.

This is Liam's best release so far. So strong and practical. I can see a ton of applications for this concept.

Josh showed me this a couple of years ago, and me and my friends liked it so much we had to go out and make up watches for ourselves. Not only did we have to buy a watch (not cheap) but then we had to take it to a jeweler to have it modified (a big hassle).
And yet the trick was so good I still feel that the time and money we invested was worth it.
To get the method, and the watch, all in one convenient package is a steal. Actually, I just might pick this up as well just so I see what new ideas the guys have come up with!

Very clever Liam!!

This looks super slick from the demo, I can imagine this playing really well. If it really can be examined after the routine then I'm in.

I think it is a really nice idea with a lot of potential. Although I wonder that you can floor experienced people with it (I didn't know this concept before, but got it immediately...) I've to admit that this fact isn't important at all. It is a very fair price! No need to "experiment" for yourself if you like it... Jan

This effect is why Liam Montier is one of the best and most under-stated magicians. This is just a beautiful effect and the ending is killer! Already asked Liam to put me one aside when they hit his site! Really Awesome Liam!

My order is in. I'd be interested to hear how others perform this....hint, hint Lee 
Would you guys play it out as Josh does in the demo or would you prefer to play it as if the hands were never there and just a figment of their imaginations?

So I ordered this earlier, waiting for this post, but just decided to take the plunge. One thought that I did since this post, what is the quality of the watch? Will I be able to make my own up later if I want? I am assuming yes, since others said they did. Anyway, has anyone seen the quality of the watches supplied, or are they ones in the demo?

You can usually get a feel about an effect by the comments in a thread, who says it, who is selling it, etc. I think the probability of this being really strong is extremely high

Is it just me, or is it obvious that the watch never changed times and Josh miscalled them?
Seemed like the watch read 9:05 the whole time, but I could be wrong.
If not, this is pretty bold.

I agree Robert. Still a strong effect. Perhaps the spectators don't notice as much as we would

I have used the technique many times for showing a time on a watch,just before the spectator spins the dial themselves in the classic way,which reinforces they are turning the hands on the watch,as the hands have changed after they spin the dial while in their hands.
I have never been called out on the technique and and have come to the conclusion it re-enforces the effect(only one false show).
What I like about this,is the fact your getting the vanish of the watches hands added to the classic many use and love with pretty much no extra work.
Pros and cons to everything,but judging by effect only(laymen),i can't see this not hitting hard.
