XS Horizon Wrist Watch
XS Horizon Wrist Watch is an innovative timepiece that revolutionizes traditional time-telling through its distinctive dual-gradient display system, designed by Robert Dabi. This avant-garde wrist watch employs a unique visual approach to time representation, utilizing two transparent synthetic discs driven by a Japanese Miyota quartz movement to create a dynamic temporal visualization. The watch's sophisticated design philosophy separates time into past, present, and future through a sharp moving line, where the past is represented by gradually fading color gradients while the future is symbolized by darkness. Crafted with precision engineering, the watch features a compact 316l stainless steel casing measuring 31mm in width and 9.7mm in thickness, making it an ideal unisex accessory. The timepiece's technical excellence is evident in its carefully constructed components, including a hardened mineral crystal glass, water resistance up to 5 ATM, and a sophisticated Milanese mesh strap with a tool-free quick change mechanism. Available in elegant Rose Gold or Black PVD finishes, the watch demonstrates exceptional attention to detail in its manufacturing process, particularly in the precise layering and opacity control of the printed gradients that ensure optimal readability. This groundbreaking design, which earned the prestigious Golden A' Design Award in the Watch Design category, represents a significant advancement in horological design, combining minimalist aesthetics with innovative functionality. The watch's battery life extends to approximately two years, and its twist-lock case back facilitates easy maintenance, while the crown mechanism maintains traditional usability for time adjustment.
