My last post got deleted because I inadvertently advertised myself and didn't realize it wasn't allowed. I apologize to everyone. Anywho, there's an effect I purchased and was wondering what, if any, ideas anyone has for handling the presentation and/or effect. What the effect is, is basically a picture of the selected card shows up on your watch and vanishes just as quickly. This effect has a lot of applications that are good for street magic and mentalism. I usually perform it with a patter based on hypnosis and was looking for some fresh ideas. Would love people's input.

Once again, didn't mean to seem like a spammer. My apologies.

This effect was once a staple of Mike Borenstein's. He may have written some great lecture notes on this. If you can find some of his writing, circa 1985, it would be around that time.

Borstien does have some most exellent work.

There's a routine on Mix 'n' Mingle DVD by Shaun McCree where a selected card ends up under the magicians wristwatch. The patter is very good and would work well with your gimmick.

Ive never actually heard of this affect can you send me a link to it?

Tannens used to make this trick back in the 70's. I think they still make it.

Yes, Last time I checked indeed they did!
