I’m not sure why I choose this article but it was very intriguing. And 1.2 million dollar accordion watch. Before even reading this article I was quite curious what kind of person would purchase a 1.2 million dollar watch. Then I thought who would buy a 1.2 million dollar watch that’s also an accordion. However my curiously defiantly made me want to investigate this article further. Manufacture Royale's Opera $1.2 million watch doesn't just open up for show, there's some functionality built into that unfolding, accordion-like action too. “Minute hand repeater plays C#, hour hand plays in A.” The watch will be limited to a run of only 12 timepieces, each comprised of 319 gears, springs and other bits of 18k rose and gray gold. The band is made of alligator skin. I’m just in awe of the actual mechanics that are in this watch. At a time some people televisions weren’t this extravagant and to think that this is only a watch. Technology these days is defiantly revolutionizing the world in ways I would have never imagined.
