I have a cheap digital watch (easier to read) mounted behind a door that covers the radio on my car. Not the most convenient but it does work for me. The watch was about $12 and surprisingly the battery lasts about ten years before replacement.
I don't like the way it looks, so you don't have to buy one for me.
Of course, police are getting stickier about cell phones in cars and soon you won't be able to glance at your phone to see what time it is. Fortunately for me, the clock in the radio works in all of our cars, so don't need a watch and don't use the cell phone to check the time.
Another picture. You guys not a fan of high end watches??
It looks very steam punk to me.
High end? Sure, I like a plain face gold Phillippe Patek but I never wear a watch.
What appeals to me is extreme functionality, like a deep fathom diver's watch, or else elegant and understated. That watch is neither. But they manufacture it, so it must appeal to enough people to make it worth making it. If you like it, buy one for yourself.

I know what a Montblanc complication is.
Ditto Rolex and Omega, I own one of each, my only mechanicals.
To do over again, I'd try something one step more-exotic as far as movements go: probably one each Ulysse Nardin and IWC.
If I hit C-level at a major firm, might pickup a Vacheron Constantin and or Jaeger Lecoultre. That's a "money to burn" stage...
Yours is gorgeous, only to fellow nerds however. I'd wear it with pride, knowing you'll impress other watch nerds and few others.
In fact I've taken to wearing a Garmin Fenix 5, collecting tons of telemetry about my day (and about me, heart rate and motion). I figure twenty years from now they'll have a slew of sensors monitoring us: hope so, keeps me honest. I think it's the opposite of sexy. So, styles and desires change over time!
I prefer a Rochefoucauld. The thinnest water-resistant watch in the world. Singularly unique, sculptured in design, hand-crafted in Switzerland, and water resistant to three atmospheres.
