Whenever you go to any shop to buy a watch, you must have seen that the time of all the watches is 10:10. There are many people even today who do not know the exact reason behind this. In today's article, we are going to tell you the reason for this.
Why do the needles stick at the same time?
If you also search for pictures of wall clocks on Google, then you will get to see only 10 minutes past 10 on the clock. Different companies all over the world make watches. In such a situation, the biggest question comes that why all the companies do the same thing. Why do all the hands of a clock stop at the same time?
Have many beliefs
There are many reasons behind this, many people say that American President Abraham Lincoln died at this time, while some people also say that Patek Philippe, the father of the wristwatch, died at this time. Since then, all the watch-making companies keep the watch at this time. People believe so.
False claim
Please tell that Abraham Lincoln was shot at 10.15 am and died the next morning at 7.22 am. And Martin Luther died at 7:50 in the evening. In such a situation, it would be wrong to say that the time of the clock is kept at the time of his death.
Because of the atomic bomb
Some people also see it linked to the nuclear attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by Japan by America. People believe that the atomic bomb was dropped at 10:10. If facts are to be believed then this claim is also completely wrong. In reality, the bombs were dropped at 8:15 and 11:02 in the year 1945.
Know the real reason
Let us say that Happy Smile Face creates at 10:10. In such a situation, people believe that 10 minutes to 10 minutes makes people's mood special, so all the companies keep their clock time to 10 minutes to 10 minutes.
