This watch was created as a symbol of the "fusion of technology and beauty," inspired by modern architecture. Its striking design and unprecedented light-harvesting system come together to create a piece of art that expresses the concept of the near future through a watch.
The structural combination of sapphire glass on the case side and the metal pillars of the central case is truly reminiscent of modern architecture. It balances the functionality of protecting the movement with the visible beauty of sparkling glass.
Rather than a simple three-hand watch, it also features a new expression of the moon phase, symbolizing the relationship between light and shadow that this watch represents. The index design, with its playful focus on the side view, contributes to a flawless overall design.
Placing what was once in front to the side—while it sounds simple, positioning the solar cell on the side was a challenge no one had ever attempted before. Thanks to the engineers' efforts, innovative technology and a novel form have come together.
This product was introduced to the world with the catchphrase "The Monster That Absorbs Light." This design, which has pioneered the future, absorbs light and radiates it brilliantly, becoming a crystallization of hard work. The attention to each part and the overall balance are beautifully embodied as a single symbol.
A novel design befitting innovative functionality.
With the concept of "NO DETAIL IS TOO SMALL," the side design was inspired by modern architecture. Its structural form and the gaps between the case lugs create a futuristic space.
From the front, the side of the case lugs is slightly visible, hinting at something on the side. This emphasizes the three-dimensionality and depth, while giving the case a complex and elaborate brilliance. The lugs that support the large case are sturdy and resemble elegant prongs holding a large gemstone.
The sapphire glass on the side is divided into five pieces. These glass panels and the five pillars provide shock resistance and water resistance. It resembles a building with large windows.
The crown, with its slanted shape, fits comfortably on the finger. It is simple yet easy to pull and matches the design of the case.
The dial is made up of six parts, and the indicator ring consists of eight parts, all finely crafted. By minimizing printing and expressing details in three dimensions, a futuristic feel is achieved. This three-dimensionality also balances well with the voluminous case.
The pearl coating on the leather gives the entire watch a sense of transparency, which harmonizes with the dial.
