K'nell....

The best photos I've seen of that one Chris, really shows off the skull and the way it's all suspended within the case.

we dont like to mention the price, but heyho only 15 made. pictures dont do these things justice, really hard to capture, the case is 16mm high, so that gives the depth to make the skull float in the middle. the Skull itself is curved,not flat, so again adds to the 3d effect, really is very cleverly made.
This watch I think is the closest thing to a piece of jewellery I have, many watches are beautiful, but this is the only one i have come across that the 'jewellery' asepct of it is a plus
Not for everyone I am sure but I am very very pleased with it indeed...thanks for your nice comments

Erm, am I allowed to be the first one who really doesnt like that? It's just a bit, well, George Michael for me. But fair play, it's interesting and unusual, just not for my wrist or bank balance!

I do like those Heuers though...very cool. More Steve McQueen than George Michael I guess!

I'm with you, it might be great engineering but looks pretty terrible to me and I wouldn't wear it. (Not that I can afford one, worth more than my house!)

Here is mine... I wear it everyday. Looks a bit boring compared to some of the vintage watches on here. :-)

That's because you need MOAR ORANGE on it.

Me too - Irrelevant to a large degree as I'm definitely NOT target market, but novelty watches (however expensive or beautifully engineered) don't really appeal to me.

Still, in such small numbers, I'm sure they can find enough people to whom it does smile

Not too keen on the skull - but anyone who appreciates watches should be nursing a semi at this one. biggrin
