When Elon Musk is looking for an appropriate watch on one of his future trips, he might be checking Konstantin Chaykin’s latest. The Mars Conqueror Mk 3 is the latest brainchild of the most creative of all watchmakers. The relevancy of knowing Martian time should not be underestimated. Ever since I owned a IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar, provided with a small tube with additional year-displays for the 22nd and 23rd century (“Don’t forget to make a service appointment with your AD in December 2199”) I see the demonstration of relativity of time as one of the big treats of horology.
Ingenuity and creativity
Konstantin Chaykin understands this as no other. Whether it’s the Cinema Watch, demonstrating a small movie of a galloping horse, the one-handed Genius Temporis or the best-selling Joker. Konstantin Chaykin’s watches show that telling time is just a by-product of his ingenuity and creativity.
