( my fav is the gold one ) I would have love to see more time displayed/written pics, to know what it look like at 7-12h / 35-55 min. I like the overall look.

In that case I think the engraving or laser etching in the metal will be detail enough. would have a nice tactile quality too, yummers! :D Ahh I see, that makes sense…nicey nice.

The metal inlays wouldn't have any glass covering them, the glass would have two holes where they are. So, no glass to etch above them. But, if you want some light play, perhaps the engravings/etchings could be filled with lume. Thanks, Pete.

If you want indicators to ease reading, perhaps there could be indentations in the case around the lens. Square theme wouldn't be my preference, unless you know of some cubical planets :) As for the strap, there are two reasons why I was thinking leather instead of metal: 1) to reduce the cost to offset the engraving/etching, 2) a dark leather strap always seems more formal to me, and I imagine this as a dress watch.

Yes, you could have different animations, maybe at certain astronomically-interesting times. For example, on days with a full moon, a special animation is shown every hour. Glad it reminds you of Denshoku, that's my favorite Tokyoflash design. Thanks, Cory. Yes, you could have different animations, maybe at certain astronomically-interesting times.

Love the detail on the globes. Maybe the glass could be etched where the globes are? this would look cool when illuminated ect. Very support worthy concept! 5/Y Best of luck sir! :D I like it Logan, Nice simple but unusal take on analogue time telling. Love the detail on the globes.

Very simple time-telling is a winner for me. I would have liked to see a 3D representation, just for the wow factor. 5/y Great idea, Logan. Very simple time-telling is a winner for me.

Actually I couldn't quite imagine this design, and the time indicator, should it has some sort of subtle line to ease reading? How about a square theme in stead of round? If it goes with this shape, I vote for SS strap. Still interesting idea Logan. ........ A good and fresh concept.

You could do all sorts of cool animations with this concept. The different celestial bodies give it excellent variety, too. Reminds me of Denshoku meets Satellite mixed with awesome! 5/y from this guy. Ultra cool concept, Logan. You could do all sorts of cool animations with this concept.
