Day 6: Sandström Chronolink



Ah, those crazy Swedes have done it again. Long known for its stylish-yet-affordable furniture, funny-sounding names (Tord?), and ability for its near-perfect women to ski in nothing but bikinis, Sweden can now add another item to the grocery list of things it does awesome. The mechanical face flips up to reveal not only the movement of the watch, but an entirely seperate digital watch. It's kinda like a Terminator: all normal and regular looking on top, but kinda big and clunky for no real reason. Then it rips off its face to reveal an advanced technology, but without the blood and goo.

Specs:

(on top)
• Manual mechanical movement
• Black face with second subdial
• luminous hands and numerals

(underneath)
• digital face
• stopwatch functions
• tells time in multiple time zones and cities
