Based in Hong Kong, Earth, the independent watch brand Behrens is named after the industrial designer Peter Behrens. You’ll undoubtedly see an industrial design in this space wristwatch.
The roller type dual time means the watch can show the time simultaneously for Mars and Earth, and with different time zones.
The watch looks different and is formally known as Behrens B025, sometimes known as Mars Project One. To read this watch face, start at the top with rotating planets and to the dials for the day of the week. Finally, look down to the tumblers for the time. At night, the numbers glow.
The watch is a titanium shell and sapphire crystals on the front and is based on a redecorated Swiss Cal.SW200 automatic movement.
The length of a day on Mars is longer than on Earth. How does the watch take care of that? It doesn’t. Mars is 24 hours and 37 minutes; those 37 minutes are ignored. So, yeah, your Martian time will be slightly out.
How much does the slightly wrong but awesome-looking space wristwatch cost? $9,125. Make of that what you will!
