80s Vintage Onyx and Abalone 18kt Gold Plated Ladies Timepiece with Lizard Band Limited Edition. - $45.00

Don't call this a watch.
Call it a stare. Call it a contemplate. Call it a gaze.
Call it absolutely stunning, ravishing. Call it exquisite.
Call it yours and smile.

What do you think about when you read the word "Haiku"?
Simplicity and elegance? A thing familiar yet slightly exotic? A thing well-crafted, without the taint of artificiality?
Well, this Haiku is all that and more.
The case is made of cool, deep, almost liquid, Onyx backed by 18 karat Gold Plated stainless steel. Beneath the flawless crystal, the hands are made of that same plated steel, set into a dial of Abalone that shimmers in the light. It seems to shift and reform, composing tiny new horizons each time you look at it. There seem deeps within it, the play of shadows and undercurrents, like a pool of sparkling, swirling, ephemeral color that holds your attention with an almost irresistible charm.
Gold-plated lugs hold a genuine Lizard strap that gently squeezes your wrist like a guiding hand.
Within the case, a Japanese quartz movement keeps things ticking.

Unlike the Japanese literary form, there is nothing obscure about this Haiku.
Get it, and you'll "get it".
