March 14, 2010 By: Miles Sunkest Category: Hobby

This is a great up close impromptu magic trick that will fool almost anybody. It doesn\’t require any special props, and you can do it anywhere. It works great as a standalone trick, or with a set of other tricks. If you are bold enough, you can even do this with strangers on the street, as this is a perfect illusion for street magic.

This is how it looks to your audience. You walk up to them on the street, or to your friend, and say that something is wrong with your watch. Lately you\’ve noticed that timepieces that you touch immediately go crazy, and lose their ability to keep proper time. You ask to borrow their watch, so you can set yours. They\’ll think you\’re joking, and won\’t think too much of it.

At the same time you set your watch, get them to double check the correct time. They will, usually by looking at a clock on the wall or by checking with somebody else. You make sure they watch you set your watch, to ensure you\’ve got the right time. Thank them, give them back their watch, but confess that you think your strange aura has broken it\’s time keeping capabilities. You tell them to sandwich it between their hands, without looking at the face, and tell them to guess how far off their watch is from the correct time. Most people will guess five minutes or so, which means they\’ll be shocked to see their watch is off by around thirty minutes.

Here\’s the trick. First you need to choose somebody who\’s watch has a large stem that is easy to turn. You hold their watch in your left hand, and you\’re watch in your right. While you are focusing on setting your own watch, while they are concentrating on your watch, you quickly move their watch out of view and re-set the time. You can quickly do this when they look away to verify the correct time.

This illusion is heavily based on misdirection, and the skill of quickly changing the time on their watch with only your left hand. So of course you\’ll need some practice. You can easily practice on your own watch, if it has a big stem, while you are sitting around watching TV.

The best way to apply the misdirection is just to play dumb, as if you really have no idea what is going on. Begin the illusion as if you are genuinely asking them for the time, but concerned that you have a strange effect on time pieces. If you say at the beginning that you are going to magically change the time on their watch, they\’ll obviously watch you much more closely. This is a great ice breakers at bars, parties, or anybody on the street that you\’d like to make a lasting impression on. Have fun.
