A la the pierced eyeglasses, here’s a pierced watch that Spinknas had done with 14ga surface piercings by Peter and Brad at Central Body Art in chilly Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Haha at the above comment. It’s a cute idea, and made me go “Wooowww”, but rejection time will come. Sadly 🙁

ÈMþRꧧ, that’s been done and posted on modblog before. Was quite some time ago using a microdermal or something similar, really looked great.
I REALLY like the watch idea, can imagine it being a little uncomfortable though. Either way, kudos to Spinknas for general awesomeness.

Ha! Want that too. Ever since I got my wrist pierced I keep getting late everywhere 🙁
Nevermind the snatchings, pain is a very good teacher.

How exactly is that mounted on? It’s hard to tell from the photo.

Looks like the ends of the bars go through the gap where the watch strap would normally fit, then the balls are screwed on.

That is a very cute idea, but I must echo everyone else’s questions. It must be very difficult to avoid catching that on anything.

i’m just curious…was the watch mounted initally or were the piercings healed first. i can imagine the weight of that thing causing difficulty healing otherwise. is it removable (the watch) to avoid catching on things?…

Wow if I had that done I would constantly be waiting for someone to ask me the time.

That seems like a bad idea to me. Imagine all the dirt and bacteria that will get caught under it and dragged into the piercings.

I did quite a few of these (I’m the Brad). They were all in fun and more of a “stunt” really. Everyone knew that they were going to fall out eventually, I think we did 12 in total and some of them were worn for well over 6 months. This one was one of my favorites.
The watch is held on with 2 surface bars that are made from 14ga. teflon with extended uprights. Teflon was used because wrist movement with a watch attached would just be a little too much movement. The barbels were fed upward between the watch and the watchpin and the bead threaded on top holding it down.
Some were done with the piercings parallell to the ulna and radius, some were perpindicular.

Haha not only is it going to reject but CBA is the most horrible place to go in Tbay to get pierced. Personal opinion of course. Whod want to go to a place thats been shut down NUMEROUS times for health violations?
Creation all the way!

Gah! I knew someone would end up doing it before I could, and that it would probably be a Canadian.
Ah well, hope that it lasts a good long while before rejecting.
Just wiat till we get to where these sorts of things will be viable for the long term.

haha, that’s an awesome idea, shame it’ll hurt like hell when it tears off when they’re fishing for loose change. But atm A1 and props to Spinknas for giving it a crack.
