Got a second for this one?

Well, let’s actually start off by making one thing perfectly clear: If you are, in fact, able to afford it, you’ve got all the time in the world.

That’s because the object in question is a $25 million jewel-laden designer watch by Chopard, a Switzerland-based company that has created a masterpiece with enough bling to brighten up your life like the hot summer sun.

So why spend $25 million on a wristwatch over, say, a vacation home in Dubai? Oh, let us count the ways: 11 carats white heart diamond, 12 carats blue heart diamond, 15 carats pink heart diamond, and white and yellow flowery diamonds – 163 carats worth.  Add that together, and you get an astonishing 201 carats, which comes out to about $1.24 million per carat.

But that’s to be expected from a one-of-a-kind treasure that is unmatched in its opulence.

So what are you waiting for? Time’s ticking.
