This is a very simple device that you can fit to any watch or clock that has moving hands. It consists of two hairy sleeves, each of which terminates in either a small bundle of twigs or a ball of entangled wire. Depending on how average you want your time keeping, you can calibrate it by squashing up or spreading out the bundle before slipping it over the hands of the clock or watch.

       So, a sort of fuzzy time? Hmm... An alternative embodiment might be a ring of highly refractive material which is placed on the crystal to refract the digits away from their proper position (some closer to eachother, others further apart)
