Central Standard Timing of Chicago Illinois is seeking funds to advance its working prototype of the CST-01, dubbed “The World’s Thinnest Watch” to production.

Ora (“time” in ancient Greek), is a concept watch based on coloured meters created by designer Alexandros Stasinopoulos.

The Cartier Astrotourbillon Carbon Crystal Watch was born from the Cartier ID One Concept Watch which was announced in 2009.

The Cartier ID One and ID Two concept watches were never meant to be marketed despite the years of research and all the investment that went into making them.

After five years of research and development, Cartier reveals the next generation in watch making technology with their ID Two Concept Watch.

With the ID Two, the goal was to increase the amount of stored energy in a given space while decreasing the amount of energy consumed by the oscillator.

Cartier revealed the ID One Concept to tell the world that is quite serious about being more than just another “fashion” brand in the world of high watchmaking.

Intended to never undergo any repairing and regulation after it’s been manufactured, the Cartier ID is beautifully housed in a Ballon Bleu case.
