BRM Gold Manufacture Birotor BRT-3 by Watchismo

birotor4.jpg

Automotive-themed, with a case, lugs and clasp made of rose gold and featuring BRM's in-house movement, the new Manufacture Birotor BRT-3 is quite the stunner. As Horomundi explains, it's "very much in the spirit of the modern watch world—a boldly designed piece that expresses from the inside out the renewed fascination of man for machinery and for the ability of watches to both be, and act as, representations of the beauty and power of machinery."

Details like ergonomic adjustable lugs, a side view see-through case and more merit the €50,000 starting price tag.
