Cyclos Watches

I was perusing my copy of the 2007 Wristwatch Annual (a must have for anyone who enjoys looking at watches), and I came across Cyclos. It is extremely intriguing, The day/night style with the hour hand traversing first an inner line, then an outer, thenback to the inner is amazing. Anyone have any experience with these? I checked them out on the web and there is a good old article about them linked at the TZ forum from a couple of years back.

A nice explanation (complete with math!) is here: http://www.cyclos-watch.com/en/idea.html

Click on the animation link to see it in action.

Any thoughts?

Interesting watch, but probably not one I would wear.
