10.10 Why?

Have you noticed that in all advertising watches arrow past are always set to 10 hours and 10 minutes? Why is that? There are many versions, including even the so-called "Conspiracy watchmakers».
So, look at some of them:

Version 1. Marketers and brand managers see in this position the arrows on the clock the deeper meaning of the subconscious psychology. It is an imitation of a smile, and then the one who looks at the advertising will not have unconscious feelings of depression, if the arrows to look at 16:40, that is portrayed to sadness. And so goes the clock and smiling cheerfully send their audience a positive charge.





Version 2
In many cases, the arrow in any other position on modern chronometers and watches close logo, extra dials and jewelery. And the position of the hands to 10:10 gives the person an opportunity to examine all the details and all the dials at the head of the main and the arrows themselves, who have their own hours of good value. The disadvantage of this version only, which is not at all hours there are numerous options for consideration that it is necessary to position the shooter.



Version 3
When the minute hand stands at ten minutes or so, the hour hand is almost exactly at the hour digits. What gives the mean hours of order and dignity. 10:00 And in addition to the 10 minutes are chosen strictly for reasons of symmetry. Again, for the sake of order and rigor of the form.

Version 4
It is in this position the clock set in the conveyor assembly. And advertising is removed completely new watch just descended from the conveyor and that went up for a second. In this version there is something to complain about one thing watches mechanical that will not go until they zavedesh, but how to be with the clock quartz that batteries are inserted before vanishing from the line, and the clock with automatic winding vibration and shaking?



Version 5
Boils down to the fact that the arrow in the "10:10" look more aesthetically pleasing. Advertising should be beautiful - so something, they say, in all advertising shootings uses this time value. Version does not hold water, t. To. The value of "10:10" in no way superior to the aesthetic values ​​of the properties of "15:00", "15:30", "11:15" and several others.

This "voice of reason" and stops there are such versions are:

According to the assumption, "10:10" - is some sort of encrypted message, which regularly exchange members of a secret society (obviously, this society owns all the watchmakers). Version incomplete, t. To. The message does not open. (There are two interpretations of the message. In the first, "10:10" - a time when something - who knows what, but something very significant - to happen. The second interpretation denies all connection between "10:10" with kakim- the specific time, and treats the phenomenon as follows: until all the advertisements arrows are in this position, no action is to be, but if you suddenly start publishing advertising clock to another time value, it means that something has changed and you need to act - known as but somehow very much.)



Further - more

The famous writer Dan Brown believes that the position of the hands, "10:10" - a message from the old anti-fascist organization to all its members and supporters that the organization still operates, and the fight - continues. That logic Brown arrows in the "10:10" form an angle of exactly 115 degrees. A 115 degrees Celsius - it is just the temperature at which boiling antifreeze. "Antifreeze" consonant "Anti-Fritz" - that is the name of the organization wore, partisans during World War II in Eastern Europe. In it, by the way, included a large number of watchmakers (they were responsible for the preparation of movements for explosive devices). According to Brown, it turns out that the "Anti-Fritz" is still in effect. By the way, the writer believes that when the leaders of the "Anti-Fritz" decide that their mission is fully implemented, the advertisements change: arrow keys come to "11:05." "11:05" clearly read as «V» - «victory», «victory», t. E. Meaning of the message is very simple: victory will be ours!
Also, it makes sense to remember the "Da Vinci Code". In this book, stacked arrows symbolize the Grail shrine to the Order of the Priory of Sion.



However, it is possible that it is completely empty speculation, because advertising is not uncommon, in which the clock exhibited in very different ways.
Although ... who knows ...

That's, like, all
