We wouldn’t purchase a toothbrush from Smith & Wesson, or a muscle relaxant from Pfizer (makers of Viagra). However, a tourbillion watch by Pininfarina we would definitely do. In case you are unfamiliar with the name, Pininfarina, you might rather recognize a few of the brands they work with, including Ferrari, Maserati, and Alfa Romeo.
To be completely honest, the automotive stylist was more of a manager in the production of this particular time masterpiece, as the primary design and movement was thought up by the craftsman of the Swiss watch company, Bovet 1882. With its bold midnight black exterior, and intricate tourbillion interior, this is one of the most accurate and versatile watches we have featured on Urbasm.
While it can be worn as a regular wristwatch, it is also detachable, and can be worn as a pocket watch, or as a nifty desk clock. However, don’t go falling in love with this style accessory, unless you happen to have the $300,000 invitation, which entitles you the right not to have to ask about the price, because you already know you can afford it.
