Fans of HBO's Game of Thrones series are rejoicing at the news of a new product from luxury watch-makers Ulysse Nardin: a Game of Thrones Night's Watch-inspired watch.
The 'Night's Watch,' as it has been named, features several references to Game of Thrones on its body, including two engraved phrases: "The Night's Watch" and "I am the sword in the darkness." The watch's case is made of stainless steel coated in black rubber and highlighted with red, which functions to enhance the somber nature of the Night's Watch organization. The back of the watch is made of sapphire glass and features the Game of Thrones logo, making this a truly unique and fan-worthy piece.
Only 25 of these watches are going to be produced, costing $10,5000 a piece. Ulysse Nardin Vice President Nelson Lucero states, "We feel the watch truly captures the essence of precision and the fortitude of the Night’s Watch.”
