Показать описание
Nowadays, there’s a common misconception about this phrase as it appears on clock and watch dials. It can appear to be a brand name to many—due to the prominence it has on many horological façades. However, Tempus Fugit (temp-us few-git) is a simple Latin phrase meaning “Time Flies”.

The winged hourglass was a common design on old headstones, along with the skull and crossbones. "Tempus fugit" (time flies) and "memento mori" (you will die).

Great philosophy. Would make a great tattoo for a watch enthusiast.
