I'm getting a hour-glass.
Much better than a regular timer when you're doing the "Pomodoro" method and have to get something done. But I also have a nice lava-lamp, which is great when you're listening to music. And a record-player for vinyl CDs. And fidget toys for my ADHD and Autism (to stim while I'm doing something).
I'll be honest: I need eitiher:
Portability
Analog
If I can't carry it or if it's not mechanical, the i don't care.
I have a Zenit made in the USSR my dad left me. It's heavier than a brick, but it's so dependable. And I got a Zeiss Ikon Nettar for dirt cheap at a flea market recently, so that I can shoot both 35mm and medium format. Shooting film is such a joy.
