  it's clearly a pretty special watch › which tells time using the fingers and thumb retracting and extending. Production versions of the watch have sold privately for around $1 million, according to THR.

    > it's clearly a pretty special watch Not arguing with that: https://www.fpjourne.com/en/collection/classique-collection/ffc https://www.fpjourne.com/en/collection/classique-collection/... It's neither "old" nor "outdated" nor "ancient," and it's not "made in imitation of antiquity" so I don't understand why they call this watch "antique." It's a cutting edge thing, as far as modern horology goes.

      The other day. I saw a news article on Facebook roughly along the lines of: “Celebrity A angry at people mourning the death of celebrity B” Pretty odd sounding right? Upon looking at the comments though, people pointed out that Celebrity A was not angry at people “mourning” Celebrity B but “mocking”. A bit of an odd typo, or perhaps a blatant lie to capture attention, among the most valuable currencies. There are no potential consequences only potential benefits to lying.
