Once Upon a Crime
We all know the story of Snow White—the “innocent” princess, the wicked queen with a mirror, and those lovable dwarves. But let’s be real, the deeper you look, the darker things get. Snow White wasn’t just surrounded by seven miners—they were walking, talking manifestations of the Seven Deadly Sins. Yup, each one. You might have missed it in childhood, but now, with a fresh perspective (and a sharp timepiece), you’ll see the connection clear as day.
And speaking of timepieces—ever thought of tracking your days by sins? Core Timepieces’ Seven Sins watch doesn’t just tell time, it gives you a daily reminder to embrace or rebel against your sin. We’ve customized the day/date wheel to print a sin for each day of the week. Wrath on Monday? Naturally. Lust on Friday? You know it. Sinning has never been this stylish. Though the sins do not align to specific days
Meet the Sinners—Snow White’s Real Bad Apples
Let’s break down these little rascals. Each one mirrors a deadly sin, and each one has a little something to teach us. Just like Core’s Seven Sins collection, these dwarves are bold, unapologetic, and a little dangerous. Let’s meet the real villains: After all, who says moral lessons can’t have a bit of flair?
Wrath
Grumpy is the dwarf who just can’t chill. He’s angry at the world, and honestly, we feel that. Wrath is that simmering rage when someone cuts you off in traffic or when your new watch gets its first scratch. Quick to anger, the cantankerous dwarf embodies the very essence of Wrath, always ready to snap. He reminds us that time waits for no one—especially when it’s running out!
Sloth
Need we say more? Sleepy is Sloth personified. He’s that feeling when you hit the snooze button one too many times, yet your Core Timepiece keeps ticking on. Sleepy embodies the Sloth we all fight on the daily. Maybe it’s staying in bed too long, or maybe it’s that reluctance to work out. But with Core’s Sloth showing up, it’s your gentle nudge to kick it into gear. Time waits for no one—even if you’re dragging your feet.
Gluttony
Dopey is hungry—for everything. Attention, food, you name it. His simple, goofy nature hides his bottomless appetite. Whether it’s too much food or a craving for luxury, Gluttony is insatiable. Not the sharpest tool in the shed, Dopey’s childlike demeanor hides his indulgent side. He wants more than he can handle, which is a classic case of Gluttony. Always hungry for more, like the never-ending desire for luxury.
Pride
Sneezy is an attention seeker in disguise. All those sneezes? Subtle cries for attention, the dwarf version of a humblebrag. Pride is often subtle, just like Sneezy’s constant need to draw attention to his condition. His self-focus embodies the same hubris that the Queen has—but without the killer mirror. Pride loves a spotlight, and Sneezy knows how to get it. On the Seven Sins watch, Pride is all about showing off.
Lust
Bashful might seem shy, but Lust doesn’t have to be loud. That lingering glance, that unspoken craving for something… or someone. He’s a quiet storm. Bashful’s constant blush hints at something deeper. Lust isn’t always bold—it’s that quiet, ever-present craving, much like the desire for the perfect timepiece.
Greed
Doc’s hunger for knowledge and control? Total Greed vibes. He’s the one who has to have it all, and if you’re anything like him, you know the feeling of wanting more— more watches, more status, more everything. As the leader of the group, Doc is always in control, but it’s his need for control and knowledge that mirrors Greed. Just like those of us who can never have enough watches in our collection!
Envy
Happy always seems a little too… well, happy. Ever feel like someone’s joy makes you want what they have? That’s Happy, the secret Envy-bearer. his constant cheer could be masking something darker, the longing to always be the happiest, always wanting more. Ever been happy but wanted what someone else had? That’s the seed of Envy.
The Queen—The Heart of the Tale and a reminder of Dark Reflection
Ah, the Queen. She’s not just the face of vanity—she’s the embodiment of Envy, Greed, and Pride rolled into one. With her enchanted mirror and obsession with being “the fairest of them all,” she’s the ultimate lesson in letting your worst instincts take the wheel. Her obsession with beauty and status reflects Vanity, but she’s also the embodiment of the sin that unites all others: Envy. It’s not enough to be the fairest of them all—she must eliminate the competition. Sound familiar? Today’s world of luxury and desire often follows that same theme.
Core’s custom day/date wheel delivers a sin a day—just in case you needed a reminder that no matter how good you think you look, there’s always a darker edge to beauty. The Queen would’ve killed for this watch (literally)—but hey, you don’t have to.
Sins in Culture: A Time for Reflection
The Seven Deadly Sins aren’t just a concept reserved for old stories or ancient texts—they’ve shaped art, culture, and, yes, fashion for centuries. In today’s world, we see them reflected in everything from our social media feeds to our wardrobe choices, and even in our watches. Our Seven Sins collection captures this cultural obsession with a nod to the past and a modern twist.
Just like Snow White’s journey, our own lives are a reflection of choices—whether we give in to temptation or strive for something greater. The Seven Sins watch is more than just a timepiece; it’s a statement. It’s the reminder that while time may be fleeting, our desires, indulgences, and yes, sins, are timeless.
This playful exploration of Snow White’s connection to the Seven Deadly Sins serves as a metaphor for the desires we all grapple with—whether it’s luxury, beauty, or time itself. And much like the Seven Sins collection from Core Timepieces, it’s about embracing the edge, the indulgence, and yes, a little bit of sin.
