To celebrate its 260 years of uninterrupted history, today, Vacheron Constantin has revealed the Vacheron Constantin Reference 57260 pocket watch, which, according to the manufacture, is the most complicated watch ever made. Commissioned by one of the top collectors in the world and the result of eight years of research, development, prototyping, manufacturing, and assembly all performed in Vacheron Constantin's Atelier Cabinotiers haute horlogerie workshop, this unique piece was conceived to be the most complex mechanical timepiece ever created – taking the title from another pocket watch, the Patek Philippe Caliber 89 pocket watch and its 33 complications and 1,728 components. sort of thing Ted would create on a Sunday afternoon while the paint dries on the new go-cart lol Time waits for no man A blog to watch>>>>>

Ted doesn't have time to build timepieces. In the time it takes for the paint to dry on the Go-Cart, he is building a Porsche Mission E body shell for it.

Beautiful watch Mike but is it as accurate as LH Sundial that is the question. Whether tis noble .........
The Go Kart is very hard work and in spite of using all the old metal for chassis etc it has still cost over £100.00 so far for wheels, hardware and drive gears. Hope it works after all this.
Ted.

Slings, or arrows, that is the question. (Goliath, or Custers Last Stand)
"Putty", or old computer chair ? That is another.

You forgot David and the American Indians Personally give me the putty every time. The wheel would then be putty in my hands. Boom Boom.

I hate the sound of ticking clocks, thus remove the tick of any that are where I live, or work. (the tock as well)
