Although our watches aren&#8217;t powered by steam this watch by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ingersoll1892.com\/\">Ingersoll<\/a> is an automatic watch, which is powered by the movement of your wrist.

As steampunk centres around steam powered mechanics it&#8217;s only natural that the colour themes are usually brown, copper, silver and brass. So this watch by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rotarywatches.com\/en\/\">Rotary<\/a> hasn&#8217;t only made it due to it&#8217;s skeleton dial but also because of its brown and brass colour scheme.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"product_name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/weird-ape-kolt-automatic-black-leather-strap-stainless-steel-case-wa02-005531-p-44288\/\">Weird Ape Kolt Automatic Black Leather Strap Stainless Steel Case<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-10944 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped.jpg\" alt=\"Weird Ape\" width=\"165\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped.jpg 606w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-175x300.jpg 175w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-599x1024.jpg 599w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-510x872.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-360x615.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-300x513.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/product44288-0-2770_cropped-120x205.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 165px) 100vw, 165px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This watch by <a href=\"https:\/\/weirdape.com\/\">Weird Ape<\/a> has similar features to the previous two timepieces such as the skeleton dial and automatic mechanical movement, however it also has some unique features. The steampunk style of this watch stems from it&#8217;s bezel which resembles a cog, an iconic feature of mechanise in the genre. For those who like a darker steampunk style, the strap of this watch is black leather unlike the regular brown.<\/p>\n<p>All three of these watches are currently in stock.
