Since people keep commenting on how it looks. Here they are. That way you don't have to give that cretin more clicks.

Dude if someone told me this was a modded Seiko 5 with a "tourbillion" movement in it I would 100% believe it.

What the fuck is a tourbillion?

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 15 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

It's essentially a fancy watch spring mechanism. So the open spot on the bottom of the dial is the tourbillion as it unwinds it rotates around.

Might be automatic. That way the movement of the arm winds it

the movement of the arm winds it

That explains why Trump fails his arms around during his rambling speeches.

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago

Generally yes, like the other reply said it might be automatic and self winding. It's a style of mechanical watch though so something somehow has to tension the spring that makes the watch run.

Sadly it only has a fluxdepacitor. It's like a flux capacitor but it resists moving in time instead.
