The watch, called The Masonic, is a device that re-imagines concrete through meticulous design and advanced engineering — or so say its designers.
The Masonic has been actively promoted on Kickstarter, a company that helps artists, musicians, filmmakers and designers get their project funded as it sources the support they need to turn their ideas into reality.

So why concrete, you make ask?
The company launching the new watch, Aggregate Watches, is a business that likes to experiment with unconventional designs.
According to Aggregate, this is the first watch with a bezel and dial made from a proprietary cement blend.

The designers say they want to "harness the durability of cement, without the weight and create a watch that comes in at 3.2 ounces."
In addition to the concrete, the piece includes stainless steel parts, scratch resistant sapphire crystal lens and leather interchangeable strap.
