Seth Sebastian The Analog Watch Company is now offering the “Lunar Watch,” wristwatches crafted from olivine basalt that was obtained on the surface of the moon by the Soviet Luna probe in 1974. The chunky timepieces are hand-crafted in Switzerland, and only 25 units will be made. Analog claims that radiometric dating estimated the rock to be 4.5 billion years old, from right around the time the Moon and Earth are believed to have formed, apparently making it older than life on our planet. The 41-mm moon rock case houses your basic analog watch – clearly no smartwatch operating system on this timepiece. It also comes with an Italian black leather strap, sapphire crystal face, and stainless steel case back. Each watch comes with a certificate of authenticity and is priced at $27,500.
