Designers just can’t seem to get away from using the 9-square sliding puzzle, but unlike that Slide-Puzzle table American watchmaker Hamilton is modifying it to the wristwatch market. The Hamilton Time Player was crafted from a design originally created for a clock featured in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: Space Odyssey, and will be available sometime in […]
We are huge admirers of products that serve more than one purpose. While the Chopard L.U.C. Louis Ulysse watch only tells time, it can do so as either a sophisticated pocket watch or a…well…sophisticated wristwatch.

They claim the case fashioned out of one block made of layers of carbon fiber superimposed over each other is a first in the watch-making […]
Magellan is one of those guys like Einstein or Mario Andretti that will forever be used by sarcastic sons of bitches the world over. Sure he did a great deed by circumnavigating the globe, but did you know that he didn’t even make it all the way around? No, he got killed in the Philippines, […]

Designed by Ben McCarthy, the watch is constructed from stainless steel, and is waterproof to 30 meters. To keep things clean, you access the crown to adjust the time from the back of the watch. Available for $430.
