Consumers looking for a unique timepiece may be interested in a new limited edition platinum wristwatch from Ralph Lauren.
The company's Stirrup chronograph watch, which is set in platinum, has been unveiled in time for the Christmas season, however, only 67 of the artifacts are to be created - to commemorate the year 1967, in which Ralph Lauren was founded.
According to Luxist.com, the platinum casing houses Jaeger-LeCoultre movements and is attached to a black alligator skin wriststrap.
Inspired by equestrian fashion, the self-winding timepiece can be purchased for $68,500.
Dvice.com recently recommended a platinum-set, manually-wound portable clock designed by prestigious watch-maker Patek Philippe as a "perfect" gift for Christmas.
The firm has made the pocket-sized timepiece available in platinum, featuring two faces and more than 1,000 parts, and only produces two of the items per year, which may explain its price tag of $7.5 million, the website said.
