This is the Vianney Halter Perpetual Antiqua Watch. It has three dials and a port for reading the date. This watch is incredible looking but so is the price at a mere $64,000 each. For the Steampunk with a very large wallet.

More…
The tabloids dubbed her “Lady Mechanika“, the sole survivor of a psychotic serial killer’s three-year rampage through London. Authorities found her locked in an abandoned laboratory amidst an undeterminable number of corpses and body parts, her own limbs having been amputated and replaced with mechanical components.
With no memory of her captivity or her former life, Mechanika eventually built a new life for herself as a private detective, using her unique abilities to solve cases the police couldn’t or wouldn’t handle. But she never stopped searching for the answers to her own past.
Set in turn of the century England, a time when magic and superstition clashed with new scientific discoveries and inventions, Lady Mechanika is about a young woman’s search for her own identity as she solves other mysteries involving science and the supernatural.

From Bruce Rosenbaum’s steampunk home in Sharon, Massachusetts. A steam inspired media center.
In the top a mirror frame holds the plasma screen and below a late 1800’s fireplace insert, from a coal fired train station heater, hides the electronics.
For more information on this media center and a lot of other items in the home, take a look at the in depth article on SteampunkWorkshop.com.

I’ve been searching the intertubes looking for a good image to use as an avatar for the blog. I think I found one. You can see it in the right column. It’s a photo of the brass sight-glass from the boiler of a small steam engine that was on display at the Haddenham Steam Rally back in 2007. The full image is below. It may end up as a header image eventually.
