OUR TIME AND OUR CLOTHES GOTTA COORDINATE
Time is money, and GC knows how important both are. That said, no one wants to wear the same old Timex from grade school. Time to step things up:
The UR-202 is the world’s first watch with the winding rate regulated by fluid dynamics. As long ago as the 18th century, clockmaker's were using air friction to regulate the speed of chiming clocks, and their techniques evolved to become the preferred method of regulating the rate of chimes on minuterepeaters. With the UR-202, URWERK have taken the traditional idea of using air friction and refined it to control the rate of automatic winding.
Or for the TRULY BOLD: Haruo Suekichi Steampunk. Handmade and sold strictly in Japan. Get that ebay game up to get your hands on one of these:
