The invention relates to a time lapse indicating device. The time lapse indicating device includes: a base layer; an indicating layer which is laminated to the surface of the base layer, wherein the indicating layer includes an indicating part, the color of the indicating part changes with the difference of the contact time with air, and the indicating part contains a chromotropic dye; a substrate layer covering the surface of the indicating layer, wherein the substrate layer is made of a transparent material, the substrate layer is in sealed connection with at least one of the base layer and the indicating layer to form an accommodation body capable of obstructing the air, and the indicating part is accommodated in the sealed space of the accommodation body; and a shielding member capable of shielding the indicating part of the indicating layer. The time lapse indicating device has strong light resistance.
