Krayon Everywhere Watch
While there are a few watches that can be preset to display the sunrise and sunset times for a specific location, Remi Maillat, founder of the Swiss design engineering studio Krayon has managed to create a mechanical wristwatch that can be personally adjusted to do so anywhere on the planet! Â The Krayon Everywhere watch ($618K) is an ultra-complex movement comprising 595 components that use the three positions on the crown to input data of latitude & longitude, date, and UTC time zone to provide a visual display on its face of both the daylight and nighttime hours but also how long the sun has been up. The timepiece is housed in a 42mm x 11.7mm white gold case with both a sapphire crystal and caseback that shows off the intricate workings within. Â It has automatic winding with a 72 hour power reserve and water resistance down to 100 feet. Â At first glance, the dial seems cluttered but soon separates into easily read displays of hours and minutes as well as the date and month. Krayon is a new company but the Everywhere watch demonstrates they should be capable of even more unique developments in the measurement of time. Â [via]
