The Swiss watchmaking company, RJ Watches, has created a watch with a 'Space Invaders' theme. The watch is titled 'Moon Invader Space Invaders Pop,' and it takes inspiration from the 1978 arcade game. RJ Watches has listed the watch at a price of $15,700.
The face of the watch features a scene from the retro game, where the player is shooting a cannon at different aliens as they invade. The face of the watch includes the background of the game, which is a series of futuristically designed cubes.
The game-inspired watch features a 46mm bezel, that has black PVD grade 5 titanium. The strap of the watch also follows the color scheme and is matte black. RJ branding is present on the back of the watch, as well as a Space Invaders tag.
