The latest pocket watch design from Hublot’s special Confrérie Horlogère division seems to take its inspiration from the NRA, with a bullet-shaped body made from titanium (for the ‘bullet’ itself) and black aluminum (for the ‘shell casing’). Known as the ‘Liberty’ the watch features a tourbillon mechanism with the time being indicated by a roller display on the side, and what looks like a sweeping second hand on the bottom.
Now while most pocket watches are designed to be stashed in your pocket when not in use, I would be hesitant about tossing one of these in with my keys and loose change since they’ll be sold in pairs starting in June for $79,000.

I was so excited about this. I read titanium <3 and NRA… Then I read $79,000… yea, no longer excited.
