Description This piece has just gone up on my Etsy shop! (www.etsy.com/uk/listing/469279…

In this particular design I have created two unique cufflinks, both of which feature an 8GB usb drive concealed inside (Totaling 16GB of storage). This not only removes the need to separately carry a usb key to the office, but also enables you to have one for work and one for personal use.

The item has been made by hand from the ground up. I have used a high quality 8GB flash drive in each cufflink, housed in a hand carved Paduak chassis with around 30 individual parts. It features a blue activity LED framed by a silver ring that shows through the lid of the key when working. On the back I have securely attached a sterling silver cufflink finding within a deep, Ebony veneer. 

All the watch parts have come from damaged or irreparable pocket & wrist watches (between 10 & 30 years old) that have been hand disassembled and then combined to create a true, miniature work of art.
