rkdk Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 What a crazy piece And look. You can even sharpen your pencils at back:-) Monstrous is the first word that comes to mind when gazing upon the Dewitt Incognito 2008, a design that is the lovechild of a a collaboration between DeWitt and French architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte. At first glance, the Incognito looks to be a little fat and perhaps clumsy; on closer inspection, however, you can see what a truly amazing timepiece this is. Technical aspects of the Incognito are most impressive, it features a flying tourbillon which is used to counteract the force of gravity and keep the watch accurate. There are also five barrels and has a power reserve that ought to keep you covered for up to three weeks. The watch is overblown in absolutely every way imaginable, with a definite steampunk vibe; all part of the appeal. The riveted case makes for quite a long watch which would probably be more of a timekeeping gauntlet than a wristwatch, not that I am complaining; this thing has presence. As you can imagine, all of this heavy metal, leather and fine clockwork costs a pretty penny; Jimmy Tan of Prince Jewellery and Watch Company in Hong Kong snapped up the Incognito '08 for a lazy 400,000 Euro or $632,941.

jfreeman420 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Does it tell time? I don't see any numbers................. Who cares anyway. If you have $600k to spend on a watch why would you need to keep track of time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
