Jewel of the day: Balenciaga Montre Acier steel watch

This watch by Balenciaga takes the form is function theory and turns it on its head. It IS a watch, but I suspect it will make you work to actually tell the time. It references the watch form (the strap, the face, the telling of time) but does so in an unconventional way that makes it more style object than easily read timepiece. If you don’t mind putting some effort into finding out the time, it retails for USD $1945 at Barneys. Besides, you’re probably already using your phone for that task anyhow.
