Orange one:

It's a limited edition of only 25 - we'll run out if we keep posting pics.

Funky. If that’s your thing - I love it. How much is it?

like £2.5k

I really like his non-Miffy watches

Holy sh*t. I don’t like it as much then 🫣

Oof that's nice! I really like those indices

Small batch, handmade elements etc. What did you think they were going to cost?

Yeah same, the subtle colouring, it even has a watermark etc.

If your going to get a novelty get a cheap one as the novelty wears off pretty quickly.
I expect this has been posted before

Looks like sub £1000 bit of fun. At that price point anOrdain seems much better value, but what do I know 🤷‍♂️

I think they're comparable with custom cases, faces etc and the 90 degree orientation mechanism in these watches can't be cheap to do either.

The moonphase disc is quite fancy, not "real" grand feu / cloisonné enamel but it's nicely done and everything except the background is lumed.

Yes it's a modified Sellita but so are most Anordains. The price seems about right to me. It's not a Timex Snoopy.

Speaking of Snoopy if they do make a moonswatch one I'm going to have to camp out or something because I'll need one of those.

How cool is that!?

What is the second hand btw?

A rubber duck

don't think there is one.

Looks like the floaty persons foot is the hour hand(?) and the rubber duck is the minutes?
what I cant figure out is how the minutes move

Ahhh.

Sorry minute hand meebies.

It'll be a clear disc with said ducky.

Oh yeah, ooops.

No second hand but it's a great bit of fun for £140

Same with any of these types of watch, the two 'hands' are transparent discs which are slightly larger than the viewable face area.

Then, either with gears on the edge of that disc or just with the usual centre pin, the whole disc turns and coloured bit / picture / hands or whatever, look like they float around.

My favourite is the Omega La Magique. This is a good look at how this one works.

Love the refraction pattern.
