The Moon Dust-DNA Watch
Why buy a gold watch, when you can get one made with real Moon dust? The Moon Dust-DNA watch is made by Swiss watchmaker Romain Jerome. The watch is made with Moon dust, parts from the Apollo 11 Rocket and bits of spacesuits. Romain Jerome’s latest collection called “Moon Dust-DNA” will have a steel and titanium case, a lunar dial with tiny craters filled with Moon dust and a strap that is created with fibers from a spacesuit.
Men first landed on the Moon in 1969 so Romain Jerome will only make 1,969 Moon Dust DNA-collection watches. Which will be made to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.
If you are thinking about purchasing one of these watches think again, because the watches will retail between $15,000 and $500,000. There are several different versions to choose from and they will be available in 2009.
