    Folks, I've been looking for some time for a way to respond to the question "What time is it?" by looking at my wrist and saying as expensively as possible that I don't have the vaguest idea.

    As a pure guess from the top picture I would say it's reading 10:13

    Yes, that's correct. These are not particularly hard to figure out to be honest...

    Far from traditional , but it is a delightful way to represent time and Earth travel. I guess it isn't cheap to present time in an entertaining manner.

    I saw this today. Quite nice, but a bit steep at $53k. M

    I like interesting ways watches show time. Over the years (100’s) they came out with some pretty unique designs and ways watches work. I gotta see if I can find that article it was interesting and there were many more variety’s than I anticipated. These do look interesting but a little over the top. I won’t bother commenting on the price I guess things are worth what people will pay, I stopped by the bank today they were trying to get me to take out a “home improvement loan” on the equity of my place. I could probably get one of these and put in a new toilet paper dispenser, money well spent
