Looking for a new watch? If so I am sure this watch would fit the bill, but I am thinking that you may have to sell the yaught to pay for it. This design is completely mechanical and rotates small colored cylinders to display the digital time!
Video interview of the designer.
"Consisting of 651 pieces, the Di Grisogono Meccanica DG (limited to just 177-units) is the world’s first hybrid mechanical-digital watch."

And all information about this clock you have is that it’s mechanical, digital and it’s made in geneve? I find this to be quite offtopic, considering the name of this website. At least give us some specs, pictures. At least not a video with no footage whatsoever of the watch at question.

*drool* Now THAT’S what I want in a watch!

While this watch is gorgeous, and I would love to have one (though could never afford one), I’m a little curious as to why all of the pictures show the watch at 12:09 digital time, when the hands are clearly at 10:09.

LOL, I never noticed that Johnny. Good eye, bad for them…

Thank you. Because the watch is so expensive, I just didn’t dare to make that remark myself.

10:09 is THE standard time for hands to be set at in ads… it’s rare for them not to be

Look this is without doubt an amazing piece of engineering and design but lets face it, the Chinese will have a Knock off on the market in 6 months and if you are lucky it will even have the same company name plastered with glee across the bezel. Go the CLONE society!

Clearly it’s keeping time in two different timezones. 🙂

A very complicated mechanical watch I highly doubt there will be a clone to this watch, have to say though would love to have one its a very complex, intricate and unique timepiece.
