Keeping a tab on time doesn’t necessarily mean just watching the hour and minutes hands chase each other in an endless quest. Hysek has gone a step further and has come up with Colosso that gives you the liberty to watch the earth spin (literally) right on your wrist. For the first time some watch maker has dared to trap our globe on to time-telling device as the crystal pustule filled with a dimensional earth rotates for local or GMT time. This 12mm three dimensional globe majestically sits at 12 o’clock. The movement is implemented by cathedral timbre and 62 jewels with a 48 hour power reserve. Featuring a big date at 12 o’clock, it also dsiplays indication of the cities of the 24 time zones linked to the GMT.
The retrograde time zones with a linear double display is situated at the lower end and displayed in curvex position with indication arrows that indicate which side to observe (24 to 12 hours / 12 to 24 hours). And since you cannot afford a piece of moon for $550,000, why not strap this Colosso on your wrist for the same price and flaunt our spinning earth instead?

why is the watch on the wrong hand
Why is that gaylord wearing his 550,000 dollar watch upside down?
Sorry, but thats the way the watch has been pictured on the person’s wrist :)
Looks like something that we would see on Cruise’s hand in a Mission:Impossible movie. Futuristic.
OH....Tom Cruise.......I have a crush on him since my teen days and still havent got over it. Certainly this watch will suit him the best in MI :)
Sorry folks, but a man who pays $550.000 for a watch don’t needs to explain himself to peasants like us... Far I am concerns, he could use it on his leg...
Nice watch... Wondering how long will take for the Chinese to come up with a $60 exact copy...
thanks so much
That watch looks nice but it’s very expensive....
too confusing to look.
