This watch looks like a garage project of a talented plumber. After seeing enough piping, he just had to make a watch out of all that copper and those valves. Well Angular Momentum isn't a bastion of the world's most elite plumbers, but it does fancy artistic creations. And this watch isn't copper, but rather Beryllium bronze (rare to see made into watch cases). And there is a lot of bronze. The watch case is a massive 60mm wide! What a tool. I don't know the water resistance of it, but I know the watch weights 350 grams (and this is not on a metal bracelet either!). It comes on a specially textured rubber strap.

Hour markers, dial, and luminant are done in Angular Momentum's special Email Lumineuse. it is basically a colored luminant enamel that is applied over metal. The hands, dial, and bezel have the applications. It glows quite brightly in electric blue and green colors. Part of Angular Momentum's Freehand collection, the Beryllium diver Magnus might be a piece unique, but if you want one, Angular Momentum will make you one. You can read more about the watch here.
