The stopwatch emoji (⏱️) features a round face with a prominent crown and a distinctive second hand, symbolizing precision and timing. It’s commonly used to denote measuring time, whether in sports, cooking, or productivity challenges. For example, one might use it during a workout to track intervals or in a cooking app to set timers for perfect dishes. Culturally, it reflects the constant race against the clock many experience today. Interestingly, it also serves as a reminder to savor moments, not just mark them. The emoji version is 1, released in 2015.
