I'm a fan of the Christophe Claret poker watch
The main problem I have with it though is that it is a simplified version of poker with much fewer hand combinations than what you would get with a real deck of cards. Regardless, it's a very cool and original complication.
Watches as Toys - can you remember any?
Let’s face it. Many men/women never grow up. Under the guise of adulthood, is the disguise of childhood. Some men wear colourful socks, under their drab coloured attires to work. Others, keep secret collections of collectible toys, be it action-heroes, mo...
Fun Post
Here are a few that spring to mind… The Haldimann H9 Tourbillon… yes, this is a tourbillon.🙈 And the Swatch Bunny Sutra 🐰 Lastly, getting back to the Roulette watch you mentioned, it actually has Black Jack on the front side as well!❤️🖤 ...
Wow the Haldimann H9 is nice
Really tongue-in-cheek. Amazing verso side of the roulette too. Great to hear from you Brandon.=D I recalled reading about a watch made to function like a zoetrope but cannot seem to find it. That was about 8-10 years ago when some watchmaker made one. Cr...
Ah the RM with spinning words

The Cinema by Konstantin Chaykin. I could not remember that piece and kept searching for posts on it.

Which is the last picture? It looks like more than meets the eye. The Daniel Roth piece is great too. Oo, the Anderson is one hella tittivating piece.=D The more I see how illogical collectors are, I see reflections of overgrown kids, trapped in an adult ...
It is very much an adult kids playtime lol
and i am a child at hear so this very much is inline with my personality lol! Right! they are amazing! It is a planetarium, Van Cleef has a version made by the same watchmaker ( christiaan van der klaauw) and it is amazing, there are like 6 planets revolv...
Amazing additions
I am curious after seeing the yellow watch. Is it made of chocolate or cheese? Which brand and model is that curiousity. Yes, the Opus series by Harry Winston was extremely exquisite and fun. My favourite was the one designed by Andreas Strehler which loo...
thank you!!
Toy watches are right up my jam!! You are talking about the heavily carved second one right? That is actually wood, completely made from various types of wood from a watchmaker in ukraine who never went to watch school but was/is a cabinet maker. Extremel...
All of them lol
But prob between either the jacquet droz koi pond or the planetarium and the masahiro kikuno
Golden delight
Ulysse Nardin has a special place in my impression. Good brand making very unique pieces.
