I like the watch so much I own two of them!

 

I really enjoy how it provides a graphical perspective on the World. I often gaze at it to see where the sun is rising or setting.


The thin gold wire over the planocentric view of the Earth bends up and down with the seasons to replicate the relative inclination as we orbit the Sun. This also explains why I am so fond of Summer. The wire is bent into a smile during summer, and a frown during winter...

It is also a pleasure to explain all of the functions to people who ask about my unusual looking watch. They are universally amazed that it is all done mechanically.

I love this watch!
