Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban introduced us to Hermione Granger's Time Turner, a magical device that allows the user to manipulate time, complete with an hourglass in the middle. Professor McGonagall had to secure special permission from the Ministry Of Magic to allow Hermione to use one during her third year at Hogwarts. Hermione was told that it was for class use only and she had to promise to not tell anyone.
Well, we all know how that went. Hermione was true to her word until Headmaster Dumbledore told her to break the rules to save Sirius Black, and Harry Potter was taken along for the ride. Not only did they save Sirius but Hagrid's hippogriff Buckbeak, too.
Then, two years later, all the Ministry's time turners were broken beyond repair when Harry and Dumbledore's Army went there to rescue Sirius. Darn it! They sure could have used a time turner later when Lord Voldemort started the second wizarding war.
Fortunately for us Muggles, time turners are readily available, even if they don't allow us to turn back time. Not only that, they come in a variety of models, including necklaces, earrings, bracelet charms, keychains, and even a sticker kit!
