Ultimate wristwatch

[Nixie]

Holy crap, this has a dual axis tourbillon! Note that the 1/3 million $ bid didn't even meet the reserve...

There also exists a triple axis tourbillon on a wristwatch, but it's a prototype and not something you can buy.

Umm...that's one UGLY watch. So...why exactly does it cost that much? I know it says it's a one-off but a digital would be more accurate...yes?

i dunno... not to step on anyone's toes but i always feel rich people gravitate towards the most expensive and tacky watches available. those people might think it's classy but i feel they're horribly gaudy.

I think you might be more impressed by this "two faced" one with 16 complications. It was built for their 250th anniversary.

If you like complications, VC rules. Muller watches have terrible design aesthetics, I like much more the "classic" look of the VC stuff.

If anyone wants to spend 1/3 million on a watch, PM me. I've got lots of great stuff I can hook you up with.
