And it's not even AWSOME, but fine enough for me, what do you think :

Nice, surreal, and something I'm hoping to accomplish someday :)

I'd like to see the source.

P.S.  Keep up the good work ;)

Thanks for your opinion.
I post the source in moray.binaries, if you want it in POV format, just tell
me.

  Ok so it definitely is not a Rollex (tm) brand watch. Awesom is
something that will create a feeling of awe in someone. I'm not
sure I am feeling awe right now but I do like the symetry of the
object.
 I am left with one question though. If it is not a Rollex (tm)
watch, and for that matter it doesn't even look like any kind of
watch from what I can tell, just what exactly, is it ?

well, i quite like it, and it looks like the biohazard symbol to me.

i'm a bit twisted though.

damn the torpedos, full steam ahead!

It's some kind of a universal clock giving the exact time (4 hours 0 minutes
and 40 seconds) in some place, you just have to find out at which place it
is this exact (I insist the accuracy is better than 0.0000000001 s) time
when you look at it.

If you say so.

btw, one small comment, the raw mesh you have used does not look right next
to a perfectly smooth torus, try re modellling the "horn" sape in sPatch, it
should produce a much smoother finish.

You're right, and thanks for the idea, in fact this horn is a raw file
output by a program of mine (from equation to raw), and then imported into
Moray, and, as I have noticed the same defect I had the intention to make it
again after transforming the raw file into UDO (Thanks to 3DWin), Maybe i
will repost the result if it is worth it.

Anyway sPatch is not fitted for such mathematical shapes

What a relief! I've been TRYING to figure out how to do that horn shape with
CSG - glad to see I'm not (overly) dense after all :)
