Very interesting approach. I bought my wife a Love Bracelet from Cartier, and that thing screws down and locks onto her wrist. I made the comment to our SA that if someone wants it, they’ll have to cut her hand off, and Rolex/AP/Patek should probably invent a similar locking system. We joked about it. And here it is!
I suspect a thief may find it within their sphere of scruples (or lack there of) and have no problem just machete off your appendage to get a $20,000 or more score! Not sure I’d want this… Will be interesting to hear what others think. Thanks for posting OP! |

Seems like a neat idea - dependent on how intent your mugger is... surprised they haven't produced one for the Sub + GMT ranges - but I'd imagine you'd lose the glidelock and easy-link functions.

Stupidest idea ever. If a frantic criminal wants my watch, they get it… not worth introducing this into the equation.

Great for sleight of hand pickpocket types. Not so great for crazed thieves intent on getting your watch. Not for me.

Interesting but if lose or forget the keys you have a Daytona on your wrist everywhere

Not for me. This is why I have insurance on my watch.

Just learn Kung Fu. It's a win win. You get into shape and get to kick a muggers ass at the same time. Extremely rewarding!

The Orkos Universe - The watch lock revolution.
Ok, that’s the most pompous yet bland marketing message I’ve ever seen. |

Yeah I dunno. The potential damage from someone trying to rip the watch off your wrist could be ugly. I doubt machete wielding thieves are common in most first world big cities but my watch is not worth losing a hand or my life over.
It is pretty impressive tech packed into a clasp that appears no bigger than the standard one. |

They will just cut your hand off.

The best secure system would be to lay the foundations to set laws that allow us to shoot the thief. I am sure they would never stole again…

When I have to start locking my watch to my wrist then it’s time for a new hobby.

Came up with a similar idea years ago. Just not as attractive!
