Thin lines of various lengths surround the face, with hour markers extending to meet numbers that sit above them like inch or centimetre indicators. These marks are printed directly onto the crystal rather than the face.

“We hoped our design would function like a tool to help wearers measure time as they would measure length,” said the studio.

Two sizes designed for men’s and women’s wrists both have calf-leather straps that pass through deep 9.5-millimetre brushed stainless steel cases.
