This right here is the London-made limited edition version of Mr.Jones The Observatory watch. Unlike any other watch, this brilliant timepiece shows time using the position of the sun or moon around the earth. The full clock face has been narrowed down to fit only half of the watch face to brilliantly indicate the hours from 6am until 6pm with the sun and 6pm to 6am with the moon.

The Observatory watch display was actually made based on the sun and moon type pocket watches from 1600 England. Check out the image below to see how the time works on this watch.
