Real Rorschach Mask With Moving Inkblots- The City Will Be Afraid of You

Whether or not you’re a Watchmen fan, this awesome real Rorschach mask is enough to make any guy cackle with glee over its potential. What the picture above is showing you is that it’s a well made, good looking Rorschach replica mask that you DIDN’T have to jury rig yourself out of pantyhose and children’s paint- what it’s not showing you is that breathing inside the mask activates a special ink that fades in and out and “changes” the inkblot randomly. How freaking cool is that?

Cool And Unusual Watches – Horological Machine No 3 Frog

To celebrate that anniversary, TAG Heuer has just released a special edition chronograph watch, called the TAG Heuer Indy 500 Centennial Chronograph Limited Edition, which is based on the Swiss watchmaker’s Formula 1 watch and only 1,000 pieces will be produced.
