From the same company that brought us a men’s watch made out of salvaged steel from the Titanic and another with real live moon dust comes perhaps the most timely horological release ever. The Eyjafjallajokull-DNA from Romain Jerome is a luxury timepiece that features actual ash and rock from that unpronounceable Icelandic troublemaker. Do we really need a men’s watch celebrating 10 days of disrupted ai***re, missed connections and botched travel plans? Clearly we do not, but you know what? We have to give it up to Romain Jerome for *** something so unique in such a short period of time. Has the ash even cooled yet? 98 Uniqueness Like the other Romain Jerome watches in the DNA collection, the Eyjafjallajokull is designed for the wearer who is looking for a wrist-bound conversation starter. We can all but guarantee this is the only timepiece on the planet to be made of Icelandic volcano ash. The dial is crafted to look like a molten volcano about to erupt, and Romain Jerome has done a tremendous job with that. The manufacturer claims this will be a unique piece, meaning there will be one in the world. Essentially, this watch was created to generate buzz around the brand, and at that it has certainly succeeded. The conception, a celebration of a natural occurrence that brought the airline industry and tourism in general to its knees, is as obscure as it comes in the world of watches. There is nothing like the Romain Jerome Eyjafjallajokull-DNA anywhere else in the world. Unless, of course, you count Romain Jerome Dark Side Of The Moon watch, in which case there are many watches like it, just using different dust.

However, what works for Romain Jerome in terms of hype works against it when it comes to longevity. Sure, this watch is funny and kitschy now, worthy of a blog post or two, but in 10 years who is even going to remember this third-rate natural disaster occurred? No one was injured, no buildings destroyed -- all it did was disrupt a few flights, forcing people to simply extend their vacations. It doesn’t sound too bad to us, really. The Romain Jerome Eyjafjallajokull-DNA is a collectible now and a novelty act in the future.

The newly founded brand of Romain Jerome is not only regarded as a fast growing company of watch manufacturing, but also as one of the most devoted brands in this industry. This brand is driven by a continuous desire to accomplish more, to revolutionize and to make the impossible possible, and this has been shown by its relatively short tradition in watch manufacturing that has given birth to amazing timepieces regarded as masterpieces of horological artistry. At first, Romain Jerome was a brand of watch manufacturing dedicated to meet the requirements of golf players, with its first model introduced on the market, the Hole in One Golf Counter Watch, especially designed for golf players. The watch could perform special functions helpful in gold games, such as keeping the score during a game, measuring the distance between holes and so on, and its design had features hinting to this sport as well. But this watch represented only the shy beginnings of the powerful Romain Jerome brand, as nowadays the designers behind this watch manufacturing house seek only the most revolutionary designs and the most innovative technical mechanisms, in order to create themselves a respected name in the world of watch ***. The new watch presented by Romain Jerome goes by the name of the Romain Jerome Cabestan Titanic DNA Tourbillon watch, a watch included in the brand's legendary collection of luxury watches. This collection is known to feature watches made of steel from Titanic and which approach innovative designs and revolutionary technical complications. Given the unconventional design of the new Cabestan Titanic DNA Tourbillon watch, the Romain Jerome Company has decided to produce this watch in a limited edition of only 6 pieces, *** of it an exclusivist watch even for the most loyal Romain Jerome fans. In the manufacturing process of this watch, Romain Jerome has recurred to only the best of specialists, who were able to put together a highly complicated mechanism meant to shock the watch connoisseurs worldwide and to leave a trace in the watch *** industry. The mechanism they came up with is a manually-wound movement, defined as the CL001 Caliber, which can perform a multitude of functions such as: a tourbillon, a date function, a power reserve display, cylindrical time, and so on. The case of the new Romain Jerome Cabestan Titanic DNA Tourbillon watch measures 46x36x11 mm and although unconventionally shaped, it offers perfect legibility. The material used for the manufacturing of the case is oxidized steel from Titanic, which adds to the watch's value and it gives a chic appearance. The strap of the new Romain Jerome Cabestan Titanic DNA Tourbillon watch matches perfectly the oxidized steel case, on a light brown color, recreating an old, rusty look. This watch is definitely appropriate for those who are dissatisfied with the standard watch designs and the old-fashion appearances.
