Got the Time, Cock?

The Harry Winston Opus Eleven doesn't need watch hands.  It's got main cylinders which disintegrate and re-assemble every hour to tell you the time.

The three cylinders are meant to "deconstruct" time- with the biggest circle housing 24 placards that rotate and move every hour on a complex series of gears. The small top circle displays the minutes while the small bottom circle displays the beat of a titanium balance-wheel.

And they ain't cheap either- there are only 111 of them being made at $250 000 each.
