Whenever you're stumped looking for the perfect Christmas gift to buy somebody you love, it's always a good idea to surf the Internet to find out what kind of items are out there that make for the perfect holiday present.

Well, if you happen to be reading this, may we suggest this pretty fancy but affordable mechanical timepiece from Subaru->ke86?

It will only be limited to 300 units and priced at around $700 a piece, a figure that's not that steep relative to what you're going to get in the market for a timepiece with an automotive collaboration on it.

As for the watch itself, there are some touches done to it that pay homage to the automotive world, including a power-reserve counter that's shaped like a fuel gauge at the six o’clock position and a window on both sides of the gears that show hints of a figure that appears to have been inspired by a boxer engine piston. And, and did we mention that the watch itself uses gears to measure the time while also showing local times of a number of international cities and even the Nurburgring race track.

The only caveat is that if you're thinking of scooping this timepiece up as a Christmas present, you might have to wait past the holidays to get it. Subaru will actually bring the watch to the 2013 Tokyo Auto Salon where they will have 30 units on hand ready to be sold.
