This futuristic timepiece designed by Arny Kapshitzer, a big fan of Starship Enterprise, is known as the HMS Automatic Warp Watch. It features some interesting similarities with the Starship Enterprise. Most of the body and mechanisms are made out of carbon fiber, and the perfluorinated, hypoallergenic rubber wristband is impervious to "all acids". Located towards the right of the dial, a cut-away metal piece reveals the jumping hours and minutes on two superimposed discs. The seconds are displayed in the 3 o'clock area on a cylinder linked directly to the crown. The 9 o'clock area of the dial forms the tail of the "spaceship". Cool!
