I'm proud to be one of the first to unveil the Richard Mille Planetarium Tellurium. It's a massive achievement in horology with an entirely new mechanical interpretation of a centuries-old tradition—depicting the universe as clockwork. Created by the revolutionary independent watch brand, Richard Mille (with obvious watch case design), it was developed by mastermind Stephen Forsey of CompliTime and is made using titanium, steel, brass, gold, silver and red corundum. For an exclusive look into his original drawings for the Planetary Tellurium and more info, go here.

Pulling the side-lever down activates mechanical pixels to rise up from the...

Numbers are formed by the motion of 23 cams, which are connected to gears and a synchronization system. To prove it, the watch's back features a transparent dial plate...
Mystic Wall Clock
The Mystic Wall Clock is a quiet addition to the new crop of products on Personal Interior Design, the Swedish internet shop. With no numbers and barely discernible hands, it's certainly not the most efficient timepiece. But what it lacks in logical components, it makes up for in eeriness. Designed by Matt Carr for Umbra, the clock's hazy finish lends an ethereal notion to...
