This luxury collector's watch is inspired by the bounties claimed by pirates, using aged metal to create this spectacular wristwatch.
'Bell & Ross' released a sophisticated timepiece with an aged look reminiscent of a discovered pirate treasure. The watch features a provocatively frightful, solid gold skull in the center as a symbol of power and trust. The 46 mm case features an aged bronze exterior with an alligator leather strap.
The designers of this luxury collector's watch do not shy away from extravagance in any way -- even the case is made from precious wood. When the box is opened, it presents a glass dome encapsulating the watch to further mystify its legend. The watch will be auctioned off for the Monaco Association Against Muscular Dystrophy, with the highest bidder receiving this pirate's treasure in return.
