The Dinosour Crap

Review on other interesting watches and the world of horology are  available at http://zhenendeavor.blogspot.com/


The quest for unique material for watchmaking seem never ending. Before we are surprised with the Romain Jerome Titanic DNA, using metal from actual Titanic ship (with some corrosion effect) and Romain Jerome Moon dust, watch that incorporate moon dust as well as fragments of the Apollo XI and Soyuz space shuttles and the International Space Station ISS. 


Nowadays, the journey go even further thaN that.....Lets do the dinosur...

This is the Louis Moinet Jurassic Tourbilion Watch , with face made of 130 million year old dinosaur bones...It also utilised other materials such as 18k white gold with 56 diamonds on the bazel to make it more glorious...This one sell at USD 150,000.00


Whilst the next one…hmm , I don’t really know whether to call it a complete crap or act of ingenious design….Yvan Arpa's coprolite watch is a US$11,290 timepiece with a face made from coprolites and a band made from black cane-toad skin (normally poisonous, rendered inert through processing). 



The thing  is, coprolites is actually a crap… fossil dinosaur turds, feces , dung , shit…what ever name you are comfortable with… and coprolites just aren't that valuable. Dinosaurs left behind a lot of crap..so they decide to sell it at USD 11,290.00...perhaps the most expensive shit ever...hahhahah
