There are few things I love more than mechanical watches and whiskey. In a very expensive twist, a Swiss watch and the world’s oldest whiskey will combine to create the Whisky Watch, a $45,000 piece of liquid-infused luxury that Vox Media will not let me expense.
Swiss watchmaker Louis Moinet has partnered with Wealth Solutions, a Polish company that specialized in luxury collectibles to add a drop of Old Vatted Glenlivet 1862 — the oldest whiskey in the world — into a glass chamber in 50 watches. The gold version of the Whisky Watch will sell for $45,000, which is a midrange price for Louis Moinet watches, while a steel version will cost around $17,000 (that’s still hella expensive).
