As a "watch guy," I get what the manufacturer is going for. And as I do believe the balance wheel is in fact spring actuated (despite the functionless gear train), again - as a watch guy - it does hold appeal to me. Of course, I already own a set of cufflinks constructed using bridges and gears from old mechanical watches, so I admittedly have a predisposition for such frankenpens. Not a fan of $400 ball pens, nor am I a big fan of (the use of) rose gold in general, but I get - and applaud - the concept. It is certainly a niche product (though one could argue the same about FP's in general, at least in the US market), but as I would imagine the EDC cross section of pens and watches to be fairly large, and given this company has apparently been making frankenthings for a half-century, I'm guessing the niche is fairly large as well.
