| Description | |
| Demo. The well-known surrealistic piece introduced the image of the soft melting pocket watch. It epitomizes Dali's theory of 'softness' and 'hardness', which was central to his thinking at the time. Many also consider that the melting watches were there to literally symbolize the irrelevance of time. |
