4. Xeric Trappist-1 Moonphase Watch
If you want a watch that's a little out of the box (or, out of this world), check out the Xeric Trappist-1 Moonphase Watch. It was designed by one of the most successful watch brands on Kickstarter, and features two Super-LumiNova planets that indicate hours and minutes on the dial, a center viewing window that shows the current moon phase, and Hesalite domed crystal (which just so happens to be the preferred watch crystal for all space missions). It might not be like going to outer space, but it's pretty close.
