nice watch, how much is it? :2cents:

lol

i was expecting such a question :D

first, these are not referred to as "watches" but "time pieces" and they don't really have price -if they had it would easily be a 7 digit price- but i think these are not to be worn as watch.. it takes more than a years to build one and for the most complicated there are limited series maybe less than 10 in the world so their place is a museum, not the wrist of someone who can spend millions of $ on a time piece.

the video is absolutely ugly, a new picture every 0,2 second you can see nothing of this very nice watch.

Well... it's a youtube video probably made by someone who is passionate with mechanical watches but with limited video editing skills.

My point in sharing these videos was just giving an idea of what watch makers do because I think it's deeply amazing.

If you search the watchmakers' website you'll find videos in HD ;)
