The Watch That Can't Be Counterfeited


Apparently this watch cannot be counterfeited.

Using security features borrowed from the printers of Swiss currency and passports, the Quai de L'Ile has secret markings using high security polymer papers and inks, and special hidden images that can been seen only by using a UV lamp. In the picture you can see a tiny UV sensitive sun image between the 1 and 2 on the dial.

Due to be launched in New York on Wednesday, the privilege of having a watch that cannot be bought for £30 in a cattle market will cost you between $29,000 and $60,000. 800 will be made each year and will can be customised 400 different ways. Link [via]
