Whatever Time It Is, It’s Always 1875 Wherever This Tesla Wristwatch Goes
Mainstream history might relegate him to Thomas Edison’s opening act, or perhaps the Pete Best to his Ringo Star of Earth-shifting science, but time and a sense of perspective have transcended Nikola Tesla to the status of “Nerd Demigod”. Leave it to ThinkGeek to exclusively honor the Promeathean groundbreaking scientist with a guaranteed conversation-starting unique analog wristwatch.
This steampunk-inspired piece’s every metal part is dressed in a weathered-brass aesthetic complementing its handsomely simple leather strap. Its fine Japanese movement keeps impeccable time managed by classic ornamental winding keys, but the true highlight is its pair of light-up red LEDs on top, styled after antique vacuum tubes. Bookish fashions of 2015 never looked so charmingly “1875”.
The ThinkGeek Tesla Wristwatch runs on three included button cell batteries – SR626SW (minutes/hour), SR521SW (seconds), and CR2032 (LEDs). Your timepiece arrives in a stylish ornamental tin ideal for gifting or particularly classy personal storage. Please note, this watch is not water resistant.
