If youve ever wondered when Jupiter will next be aligned with Mars, Van Cleef &ercurys the shortest, 88 days. Time is indicated by a shooting-star symbol rotating around the dials circumference. The watch has a whimsical feature: you can choose a day as your lucky day and then rotate the bezel until the red pointer is aligned with that day on the graduated calendar. When the day arrives, the Earth symbol (the blue sphere) will be directly underneath the star that is outlined on the watchs crystal.
The planet module was designed by Christian van der Klaauw, renowned for his movements featuring astronomical indications. The movement is self-winding and contains 396 components. The case is 44 mm in diameter and made of rose gold. The dial is made of aventurine and the planets of semiprecious stones. Price: about $245,000; a diamond-set version (below) will be about $330,000.

I love the idea. Seeing the present planetary alignment of the solar system. Of course this particular sample is super high-end. But I would love to see another manucturer bring out something swiss and automatic in the range of $3-6k USD. It seems like Omega would be particularly well suited to the task given their space program heritage.

As Robert Kiyosaki said in Cashflow Quadrant.. I sat in the car that I want. Then Kim leaned over and said, You want this, dont you? .. I nodded, happily. She replied with, Then go find an asset to pay for it. . Soon I had my car, and we had an asset giving us more cashflow. We got richer and STILL got our toys!
Lesson Its time for me to go acquire an asset to pay for this delicious piece of artwork.
Thank you for creating it! Worth every single penny!

Do you make them for people who cant afford the precious stones and metal. A poor persons watch who actually admires what you do and what it is about.
