The Complication Potique Midnight Plantarium watch by jeweller Van Cleef &enus 224 days; Earth 365 days; Mars 687 days; Jupiter 12 years; and Saturn 29 years.
The discs themselves are made of polished aventurine, and each planet is a semiprecious stone. Mercury is serpentine, Venus is chloromelanite, Earth is turquoise, Mars is red jasper, Jupiter is blue agate and Saturn is sugilite. The sun at the centre is rose gold, as is the shooting star that circumvents the outermost edge of the dial marking the actual time of day or night via the 24-hour markings inlaid in rose gold.
A rotating rose gold outer bezel lets you choose a special lucky day. On that day, the Earth will move under the star engraved in the sapphire crystal to mark your chosen day.
Housed inside is the RD821 self-winding movement from Manucture Roger Dubuis, and the watch comes on a strap of black alligator leather.
Pricing is, of course, via request through the jewellers website, but expect it to be somewhere upwards of US$285,000.
