What’s this?

Two new watches from Revelation?

Nope, just the one watch.

One with a very clever trick up its sleeve.

Twist the bezel and some smart polarising tricks turn the dial from see-through to completely opaque.

Turn part way and choose partial opacity.

Very cool indeed.

The watch itself is a 45mm piece in stainless steel and integrated leather strap.

Power comes via an automatic caliber CH01 movement which beats at 28,800vph and has a 42 hour power reserve.

Magic such as this does not come cheap – the Chronographe RS will run you close to US$15K.

You will though have a watch that, as far as I know, is unrivalled in its ability to do this – special iris gadgets aside.
