Marie Antoinette ‘smartwatch’ on display in London
Description
December 12, 2024

It belonged to an iconic queen, who never lived to see it completed. As Touria Izri reports, the masterpiece may not look like a smart watch by today's standards — but for the 18th century, it was way ahead of its time.
