Several years ago, I saw a watch for sale at an estate sale. It was among the most unique watches I've ever seen, and I'm still kicking myself for not writing down its name. I was hoping some of you might be able to help me find one like it.
It had its mechanism concealed in the rim of the watch (around the outside edge) and the hands were attached to two round glass plates, which occupied the center of the watch. The watch was completely clear all the way through-the hands seemed to hover in space, and were attached to nothing except the glass plates. The mechanism in the edges of the watch turned the glass plates (and with them, the hands).
I've never seen another one like it, and believe me I've looked.
If anyone knows the brand or make of a watch that fits this description, please let me know.
Thanks,
