What Is It?

a tricky one,


 one view of it open,

 does it help if I tell you it costs $550,000 about £350,000?

so here it is, closed, well half of it, by now you will have guessed, it is a belt buckle, not any old belt buckle, the Calibre R822 Predator is made by Roland Iten, it weighs in at 145 g, and is made of 18-carat solid white gold and titanium, it is adorned with 387 baguette-cut and round-cut diamonds, amounting to a total of 14.15 carats, but what makes the world’s most expensive buckle really special is its intelligent and innovative design, the mechanical buckle is made of 167 components, making it very similar to a high-quality, complicated Swiss timepiece, here is the bad news, only three of these are being made for sale, so you had better be quick if you want one, also bring along some loose change, the price does not include the belt!
