Van Cleef & Arpels Midnight Planetarium

I am not a fan of pretty much anything Van Cleef & Arpels puts out there. But I will be gosh darned if this isn't one of the coolest complications on any watch ever.

It has THE ENTIRE solar system beautifully executed in precious materials on its starry, aventurine dial surface. The caliber powering the Midnight Planetarium consists of 396 components and accurately displays the relative position of the planets as they are in real life. As you’d imagine from VCA, the materials used here are exotic and precious but, refreshingly, the overall design is restrained and elegant, making this a stunning option for a unique watch as long as legibility of the actual time of day isn’t terribly high on your list of priorities. An astounding piece.
