The Seiko Astron GPS Solar 8X Dual Time Watch

seiko-astron-3

The orginal Astron was a major milestone, not just in watchmaking, but in the history of electrical engineering. http://www.forwatch.org/ Seiko is hoping that the current Astron, released in 2012 will prove to be just as significant; it is the world’s first GPS solar watch

At first glance it appears to be a chronograph, but closer inspection reveals that the subdials are actually a second time zone, the day of the week and an indicator display that packs a surprising amount of info into a very small space.

The Astron movement is put together in a giant robotic assembly line. You’ll have to take my word that it was impressive, as Seiko were very strict on the no photo policy, which is understandable given that they made the robots themselves and probably don’t want to share the tech with their competitors.
