 this really is amazing!chickendance.gif

Mystery Mystery movement A debut of the latest inventions of the famous Russian watchmaker Konstantin Chaykin will take place at the exhibition BaselWorld 2012 (8-15th March, Basel). In the run-up to this significant event Konstantin Chaykin hurries to announce a creation of a new mechanical enigma watch – Mystery. The new creation of the Russian master represents a watch with a completely transparent dial and a pair of hands in the center mysteriously suspended in the empty space of the gold case. Driven by an invisible force, they duly show the current time. The miniature movement of the watch is fully hidden under the bezel of the case decorated with applied Roman numerals and a sophisticated aperture of the moon phase indicator. It is not easy to penetrate into the mystery of the mechanical movement, but the watchmaker is ready to disclose it during the exhibition. Welcome to the show of micromechanical magic with complete exposure! We will be happy to see you in showroom 5-1 at AHCI B01 stand. By: Konstantin Chaykin Watch & Clock Atelier

I guess that there is a sandwich of 2 crystals who are rotating independently: One holding the minute hand , one for the hour hand.
The crystals may have teeth on them perimeters who are connected to the hour/minutes wheels actioned by the movement...
That would explain why there is a big axis in the center: Both crystal dials are rotating around itThumbsUp02.gif

 Oh that really is cool. I love movements with see-through (presumably sapphire) components.

But yes, +1 on this being a sound explanation from the Sheriff. Guessing that there won´t be any asian knock-off`s made of this mvt any time soon, hehe.
