Planisphere Watch
Say what?
What's a planisphere?
Oh.
When I first saw this watch I thought it was one of those multifunction tourbillon jobs, with three grand complications and a price tag in the mid-five figures.
So I was kind of surprised to see it costs $59.
From the website:
- Planisphere Watch
This watch boasts a planisphere (starfinder) for the Northern Hemisphere that shows which stars are overhead at a given date and hour.
Dial glows for several hours after exposure to light.
Fits wrists up to 8-1/2" diameter.
Silver oxide battery included.
1-1/4" diameter face.
So even if you work nights and never get outside to see the stars, you can at least find out what's playing on the big screen.
$59.

Just fyi, I was looking for a women's version and found the Planisphere Watch at Think Geek for $49.
