November 7, 2007 by Geeks are Sexy | 2 commentsThere’s something about Steampunk-customized gadgets that really grabs a geek’s attention. Not only are these devices aesthetically pleasing, but they can send a modest man into bankruptcy.
With that said, check out my latest discovery: The Horological Machine No. 2. If you are interested in acquiring MB&F’s newest Steampunk-like creation, you’ll have to shell out a cool $59,000.
This timepiece offers the following features: instantaneous jump hour, concentric retrograde minutes, retrograde date and bi-hemisphere moon phase. Here are a few pictures of the masterpiece for you to admire.
Pretty isn’t it? Considering that I just finished reading Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy, this watch really makes me think of some of the devices that are used throughout the books. If you are a fan of fantasy stories and haven’t read the series yet, I highly recommend that you do so

60K?? For that it should shoot lazers or project a forcefield or something.
A Forcefield? Now that would be cool ;)
If you read the prints under the watch, you can see that the whole thing is made out of 18k gold and titanium..
..and 60k… this would pay most of what remains of my mortgage :)
