A watch for people with blindness

"The Bradley Timepiece, a watch designed for blind people and named after a Paralympian gold medallist who lost his sight in Afghanistan, is up for design of the year at London's Design Museum."

So begins an article found online at BBC News Magazine. This watch is amazing in its simple design that is so similar to other timepieces worn by those who have sight. Two ball bearings are used; one to indicate hours and one to indicate minutes.
