Fancy an Astronomical watch that accurately depicts the orbits of the brighter planets?

"The importance of a telescope is not how big it is, how well made it is.
It is how many people, less fortunate than you, got to look through it."

Wow!...Only $245K...So cheap! Once I strike the Singapore Big Sweep, I can buy a few :)
For that price, would be better to spend it on a smartphone with planetarium app and an 18" Zambuto Truss Dob with plenty leftover for a condo downpayment..... haha!
Beautiful watch and very innovative though...
