Special and uncommon astrological pocket watch, designed by Dutchman Jaap Venker and sold from the 1970s to 1984 in an edition of 1,500 units in total. 
The watch was manufactured in Switzerland by the renowned watch manufacturer Revue Thommen. 
The steel watch case has a diameter of 50 mm.
This item will be shipped registered and insured. 

In accordance with the so-called sidereal time the clock continuously runs ahead almost 4 minutes per day. Completely unlike your regular clock, a time interval between two upper culminations of the First Point of Aries applies here. And that is, to be exact, 23 hours 56 minutes and 3.4 seconds. In addition, the indicator turns counter-clockwise. 
The gorgeous dial displays the zodiac and the visible part of the night sky. 
This watch does not have daylight savings time and therefore never requires adjustment. 
A unique watch which is very much sought after all around the world. 
The watch weighs 68.6 g, the diameter is 68 mm, the thickness is 11 mm.
The watch will of course be well packaged and shipped by registered post.
