Tin-robot-inspired concept watch

I'm head-over-heels in lust with this "Mr Roboto" prototype watch from Azimuth, inspired by vintage tin robots.

The design of Mr Roboto was inspired by the Lantern Robot of the 1950s. Azimuth’s designers show that a timepiece’s practical functionality does not have to take a back seat to aesthetic visual designs. Witness the perfect marriage of ingenious design and user-friendly functions, this good-looker is set to be a head-turner at this year’s Basel show. A unique timepiece that transcends time, Mr Roboto aims to revive the passion of the tin robot generation of enthusiasts and enduring science fiction lovers.

If I had 4800 bucks burning a hole in my pocket, I'd be all over it.
