Boing Boing Staging

Artisanal steampunk watches of Japan

Link, Link to more work

(Thanks, Robert!)

Update: Todd, who reads Japanese, notes that most of these watches aren’t for sale. I weep.

Update 2: Thanks to Logan and Nicholas for pointing out this interview with the creator of the watches, Haruo Suiekichi.
