    I would love to buy one.

    Unfortunatelly they killed it when they stated " a lot of carbon" to get rid of brackets.

    Carbon fiber = stratospheric price out of the realm of the masses and closer to the realm of Ferrari Enzo ownership. (like out of the realm of 99.9999% of the population)

    @aec007: That's a gross overstatement. Especially because it's not the whole body that's CF, just certain parts. Not to mention this isn't even close to being in production.

    gross... points for the concept - mixed face, mixed hands, mixed strap/band. Looks awful though.


    Actually in the last week I've become obsessed with mechanical skeleton watches. THOSE often look pretty cool.

    Make in my day we used to occasionally have animals like this turn up on the farm.


    You know...half-horse/half-donkey; half-horse/half-cow; half-horse/half-chicken; half-horse/half-cousin-Boscoe.


    At the end of the day, there was only answer for solving the problem and putting the poor creature out of its misery:


    Season with salt and pepper overnight; preheat the oven to 350; sear for 6 minutes a side in a (large) hot cast iron skillet coated with grapeseed oil; place skillet in oven for 1h 30m (or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees - slightly higher for half-chicken to prevent half-salmonella); deglaze skillet with a nice red wine; pour over dish; serve warm.

    Now that's a MAN'S watch!


    Big flat metal surface!

    The word DIESEL in all caps!

    Big plainly visible screws to make it more... MACHINE-Y!

    AND TO CHECK THE TIME, YOU JUST PUNCH YOURSELF SQUARELY IN THE FACE! *GRUNT!*

    That seems almost impractical as the Parmigiani Fleurier Faubourgs.



    A watch you can only use while performing socialist salutes. Ironically.

    I think the big shame is this. My Casio cost ~$50. It's solar powered, updates itself 4 times a day to be accurate, can tell all time zones, and is waterproof to a certain depth.


    Then you have really expensive watches, which for all of their bells and whistles, aren't as accurate. Of course there is an exception.

    A Rouchefoucauld. The thinnest water-resistant watch in the world. Singularly unique, sculptured in design, hand-crafted in Switzerland, and water resistant to three atmospheres. It was THE sports watch of the '80s. Six thousand, nine hundred and fifty five dollars retail! And, it told time simultaneously in Monte Carlo, Beverly Hills, London, Paris, Rome, and Gstaad.

    I love watches, but this it idiocy. Watches no matter the cost, only have to do one thing well: tell time. Why would you want to screw that up for aesthetics. Just buy a damn bracelet!

    @Slim Calhoun:
    My dad had a rich uncle who collected watches and lighters. He had "disposable" lighters that were bigger than a pop can, and I remember that he had this funky digital watch that did not display anything on the face. It didn't really look like it displayed anything on the edges, either, but if you held the face up towards a bright light the time would glow in red on the edge above the band.
