Cabestan Watch
Check out the ridiculously cool, and large, Cabestan Watch. “The watch is totally innovative from its design point of view, but on a technical level, it is not as complex as one would think at first glance. Although its construction is very particular, I would still qualify it as accessible and entirely ‘masterable’. In fact, it basically involves a repositioning of elements, which in themselves, are an integral part of traditional watchmaking: a tourbillon, a chain, and a fusee… In the same manner, the majority of the essential component parts come from the traditional assortment. It is the architecture of the movement itself that is unusual, not its individual parts.†I think I may have found the watch for me…yeah, I’m stilll looking. Oh, hang on…$220,000…back to the drawing board! [via]
