jmb Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 When I first saw this I instantly thought of "Rube Glodberg" machines! After watching the video I had to admit it was pretty slick but really don't see the point other than an engineering exercise - especially for $25 large!! http://www.gizmag.com/pierre-deroche-tnt-royal-retro/32881/?utm_source=Gizmag+Subscribers&utm_campaign=fe2ab06a45-UA-2235360-4&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_65b67362bd-fe2ab06a45-91361285 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpz5142 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Well it's the flashiness that they're after rather than the ability to quickly tell the time at a quick glance. You know, rich people's party tricks, "Look what my watch can do!" Either way it's a neat cool effect and thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrari1 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 It is interesting that this watch is smaller than the last. I wonder if the fashion for huge watches is coming to an end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
