Steampunk-ish

[DrLeftover]

As is the way of things, I came across this while looking for something else, and thought that it was a gag by somebody that was heavily into the Steampunk stuff.

Steampunk?



No... It's five hundred thousand dollars worth of fancy designer watch.

And I don't even wear a watch.

The face is beautiful but, seriously, half a million dollars?



I love steampunk and that see-through style but I don't like the days/dates/months being printed in black on white. Shouldn't they be engraved or something for that price? And I don't like the strap at all. Nice to admire, not to own.

No thanks, my 4 year old watch will suffice. (for a lot less money)
