In the same collection as Le Pont des Amoureaux and their increasing stable of interesting complications, Van Cleef(previously mentioned) has released their most ambitious complication to date, the Complication Poétique Midnight Planétarium. Within a 44mm case of 18kt gold, set with diamonds if you prefer, is a miniature planetarium showing the position and motion of the 6 inner planets, all represented in semi-precious stones. The complication is based on a Roger Dubuis (previously mentioned) caliber, and was designed by the master of astronomical complications, Christiaan van der Klaauw. Price is not published, but it's a limited edition of 396 if that affects your decision.

Their promotional video is a bit all over the place, without anything on this actual watch, but fun none-the-less.
