'2lmx' luxury watch in platinum with black dial



designed by watchmaker and former museum director arnaud tellier, the '2lmx' is the inaugural watch of a new
geneva-based luxury watch manufacturer by the same name. a series of barrels moves to display the hours and minutes
in 24-hour format, with the device's internal workings are partially exposed through sapphire crystal windows.

the unusual watch movement consists of 337 parts and 44 jewels, manually wound with a power reserve of approximately
120 hours. six rolling drums, each imprinted with the numbers from zero to nine, are activated by cams in the custom-designed
vertical tourbillon mechanism.

each watch is hand-finished and -assembled over the course of 1,000 hours in switzerland. the five 2012 models include
a platinum case with black or white dial, rose gold case with black or white dial, and anthracite titanium case with black dial.

I'm with co-axial on this one. What is that?

If it doesn't have hands it's not a watch in my opinion.

I'm not sure if I would wear it but I would definitely like to own it. Wouldn't mind having it as a display piece.
