Last week we wrote about the new 200-ft. Roma megayacht designed by Espen Oeino, the world's top star in naval architecture. Like all of Oeino's megabucks creations, the yacht "combines the precision of fine machinery with indulgent finishes and the high-end amenities of a palace."

Now the Norwegian genius has turned his hand to designing a limited edition watch for Swiss luxury timepiece brand Scalfaro, which "evinces a passion for maritime sports married to traditional craftsmanship and sophisticated manufacturing."

The Scalfaro for Espen Oeino Edition watch will be launched during the Monaco Yacht Show in September. Limited to 100 pieces worldwide, the exclusive timepiece will be priced at 6,950 euros or about $10,000.
