Gear-Exposed Timepieces

The Refined Hardware Harbinger Watch Exposes its Beauty

The Harbinger Watch by Refined Hardware is quite the sight to behold, as it exposes the inner gears for a brilliant visual display.

It is made from aerospace titanium, steel and a black alligator strap. It possesses a raw, yet flawless metalwork look that is sure to capture attention. The clockface is contained by a cage-like encasing filled with rugged looking rivets.

What makes this watch by Refined Hardware even more special is that it will be part of a limited edition run and each will be built entirely by a separate watchmaker. A minimal total of 125 of these beauties will be made, so if your wrist yearns to be strapped by it you better act fast.
