Hasta La Ideas

Scandinavia-inspired watch brand VOID has introduced two new watches featuring automatic movements that never need winding (+ buy now from Dezeen Watch Store).

Founded in 2008 by Hong Kong-based Swedish designer David Ericsson, VOID produces watches with a Scandianvian design aesthetic and aims to create “an almost architectural expression” with its timepieces.

These two automatic watches created by Ericsson pay homage to the simple designs of the 1950s and 60s.

The VOID V03M, available in silver and black or black and black, features an automatic movement that will run perpetually – as long as the user moves. Built by Japanese watch manufacturer Miyota, the movement uses kinetic energy to wind the main spring that keeps the watch ticking.

Aesthetically, the timepiece draws on the Ericsson’s Scandinavian roots by using simple geometries to reinterpret features common to diving watches, creating a streamlined dress watch.

Waterproof to a depth of 50 metres, it features oversized luminescent hour indexes and bright white hands that sit on top of a matte black face to help the wearer read the time even in murky conditions.

The face also features a calendar in place of the three ‘o’ clock mark and subtle branding below the six o clock index.

Measuring 36 millimetres across and 12 millimetres thick, the case is made from solid stainless steel. On the rear, a circular window reveals the automatic watch movement inside.

The case comes in two colours, matte black and matter silver, and both styles have a simple black leather strap.

VOID watches are an independent boutique watch brand, launched in 2008 by Swedish designer David Ericsson.

Dezeen Watch Store: the minimal VOID V03 by Hong Kong designer David Ericsson now comes in two new colours at Dezeen Watch Store. The watch is available in blue or grey. Get yours online or over the phone with free shipping worldwide for only £105.

Ericsson focused the design of the watch on the details of the hands and dial. The hands mark only the hour and minutes, keeping time-telling to its most basic functions. The VOID V03 model is the third product line in the VOID collection, a stark contrast from the original VOID V01 and VOID V02 models which both feature solid rectangular faces.

Dezeen Watch Store: Hong Kong watch brand VOID have released a new stainless steel bracelet version of the VOID V01 and VOID V02 timepiece designed by David Ericsson,  now available at Dezeen Watch Store.

The watches feature a metal strap made of stainless steel links and have the same displays as the earlier VOID models.

The stainless steel strap is 24mm wide and comes with a buckle that snaps shut. The stainless steel links can be added and removed to adjust to the wearer’s wrist.

The rectangular watch case on the anaolgue V02 steel bracelet only reveals half of the traditional circular watch face and uses double ended hour and minute hands, one red and one white, to correspond to matching numerals on the display

The digital V01 steel bracelet has a simpler display and features a back light.
