Is this an optical illusion? Is it real? The face is distorted in a squishy way.
The watch was made by LAPHONT, an art watch brand from Montreal, Canada.
He says he is influenced by the ideas of Surrealism, among others.
SQUARE MELTING
¥29,700 (EACH)
The photo shows a watch from the "Square Melting" series. It is a classic rectangular case with a twist or distortion, and is one of Lafont's signature creations.
The movement installed in this watch is the quartz "MIYOTA" made in Japan. In contrast to its unique appearance, this watch is made with practicality in mind.
Small case (H26.75 x W34.5 mm) and large case (H36 x W38 mm) are available. The strap is croco-embossed leather.
The product will go on sale at select "Nubian" stores on June 11, 2012. How about those for whom an ordinary watch is not enough?
