Moon Dust Watch: $387,000
















This is in commemoration of the 40th Anniversary of 1969 Moon Landings. This watch was magnificently created by Romain Jerome, a swiss watch maker. This time piece was made from actual pieces of the Apollo 11 spacecraft, with a face coated in dust from rocks taken from the moon. Even the straps were woven with some of the suits of the astronauts. There will be only 1,969 of the watches made. If you can afford one you can buy them here.

At least lil children in Africa were not used to retrieve the precious materials.
