A truly novel, futuristic design, but they left out the most important detail of all...the price!

these are all watch designs, only one in a year will see the daylight as a real watch. There are some pretty nifty designs. But only design that are easy (cheap) to make have a chance.

nice, it's a digital interpretation of the King Cobra by Patek Phillipe from 1958 and also some Urwerk inspiration is visible:

Very interesting - and seeing something like that produced (even if only prototype) by Patek Phillipe is a huge surprise.
Not a fan of all that gold, but the idea and that movement and display is fantastic.

I still prefer the earlier Urwerks - especially the one with the rotating discs.
