Effect 1:

The Magi begins with explaining that timing is a critical element to any illusion's success, and in this next feat of magic it is the very essence of time that will be manipulated! He removes his watch and has a spectator hold on to it. Then he borrows a quarter and has its owner sign it with a permanent marker. He informs the audience that he is able to travel back into the past by a burst of about 10 minutes! "The only way I can prove this, " he says, "is to go back into time and to place this marked coin at a location that's physically impossible, during this current time and location! " He asks the spectator who's holding the watch to look at the second hand and to count off five seconds, beginning at five and ending at zero. He closes his fingers over the marked coin and at the end of the count the coin is seen to instantly vanish! "It didn't actually vanish, that would be impossible, " he says. "What really happened was I went back into time by about 10 minutes and placed the marked coin at an impossible location! " He asks the spectator who has been holding his watch the entire time to pull up on its face. Suddenly, the attractive watch - face pops up and hinges to the right, revealing a solid metal base - plate underneath! He asks that they twist the plate off and remove it. This is done and to everyone's astonishment, the signed coin is found inside the solid cavity of the watch! This occurs all while the watch face continues to tell perfect time - or does it? The magician points out to his spectators that the time is now off by about ten minutes.. . the exact amount of time he claimed to travel back into the past!

It doesn't get anymore entertaining and magical than this, folks! TIME PERCEPTION is a mechanical masterpiece that was designed & built to last, & it can be thoroughly examined by the most inquisitive minds, yet it will never reveal its secret! A perfect walk - around tool, resets almost instantly, and is simple to operate!

Effect 2:

The TIME PERCEPTION watch is also used to perform stunning card effects! The same story regarding time travel can be used or you can substitute your own patter, here. The magician hands out his watch and explains that the element of time is critical to this next feat of magic, therefore, will someone please "time" him. Then he has someone select a card from the deck and he openly tears off a large corner of that card (which contains the cards suit and nomination). He hands the larger portion of the card back to the spectator and keeps the other portion. Then with a magical wave the magician's portion of the card easily vanishes into thin air! After some additional build - up and anticipation, he requests that the individual holding his watch pull up on its face, which pops up and swivels to the right! He reiterates that at no point has he had any contact with the watch, which was in the hands of the spectator well before the card was ever selected. Then he asks the spectator to pop off the solid metal base and inside the enclosed cavity of the watch is the missing corner of the card! It's removed and matched up against the other portion of the card by the spectator - - it's a perfect match!

The magician never touches the watch at any point!

He allows them to remove the corner and place it against the other portion of the card, which has been held the entire time by a spectator. THE HALVES MATCH PERFECTLY! That is because it really is the original piece to the selected card!

What a wonderful conclusion to any card routine - - and w/ TIME PERCEPTION, you're always prepared to perform these effects!
