Monster-Faced Watches: Luxury or Madness at 21,000 Euros?
Have you ever thought a watch could be both a work of art and a nightmare at the same time? Welcome to the world of Louis Erard and Konstantin Chaykin, the duo who decided to shock everyone with their new “Time Eater” series watches — watches featuring a monster face! And no, this isn’t a cheap toy, but a true luxury item costing a staggering 21,000 euros.
A Monster on Your Wrist?
These watches aren’t just ordinary timepieces. They combine top-notch mechanics with a bizarre, almost grotesque aesthetic. Two models, blue and green, come with calfskin and frog leather straps, each limited to only 28 and 78 pieces respectively. So if you thought your watch was unique, think again — there might be 27 or 77 more just like it!
Technical Details for Number Lovers
The polished stainless steel case measures 42 mm in diameter and 12.65 mm thick, which is quite impressive. Water resistance up to 50 meters means you can swim with it, but not dive deep. The movement is a hand-wound tourbillon with a 42-hour power reserve and a frequency of 3 Hz. You can see all this through the transparent case back.
Why Would Anyone Pay 21,000 Euros for a Monster Watch?
Besides being a limited edition and a collaboration between two renowned brands, these watches are also artistic expressions. Konstantin Chaykin is known for his unusual designs, and Louis Erard for high-quality craftsmanship. But is it justified? Or is this just another example of luxury brands trying to make us pay more for something that’s honestly a bit bizarre?
Is This a Watch for the Brave or Just for Those with Too Much Money?
If you like to stand out and have money to burn, maybe this is for you. But for most of us, it’s just another example of how luxury can cross the line of good taste. Still, we can’t deny these watches are technically impressive and will definitely attract attention wherever you go.
Conclusion
The monster-faced watches from the Louis Erard and Konstantin Chaykin collaboration will definitely divide opinions. Some will see them as works of art, others as strange and overpriced toys. But one thing is certain — you won’t go unnoticed wearing this watch.
So, what about you? Would you wear a monster-faced watch for 21,000 euros? Or is that just too much even for luxury? Drop a comment, maybe you’ll surprise us!
