Won't it be hard to tell time when the watch doesn't have a face? You'll get the general idea of what time it is, but it won't be exact.

Those are beautiful! The craftsmanship looks amazing. I'd love to see one up close (and then run for the hills from the price tag).
I don't see a problem with telling time with it. Look at Movado watches - many of them don't have traditional faces, and you can tell time with them just fine.

With a watch like this i think i could handle being off 5 or ten minutes!
Yeah the craftsmanship is amazing!! These are self powered as well!!! All of that mechanical movement in that tiny golden bridge!! I'm going to try and have a look at one at my girlfriends shop. You have to book an appointment just to see it outside the cabinet!!

Not surprised by that.
Have you seen any of the double tourbillon watches? Talk about pricey!! Some can go for as much as $500K.
