X Series

X Series is a mechanical wristwatch inspired by the Transformers characters. The movement is arranged in an X shape that forms the dial and aligns with eight time positions covering the 24 hours, offering a simple way to read the time. The fully automatic movement is housed in a 316L steel case with a panoramic back that shows the mechanics in operation. The movement is ruthenium plated and polished, and it provides a power reserve of 72 hours. The strap carries a circuit board texture. The watch measures 255 mm in length, 42 mm in width and 12 mm in height.

XS Horizon

The XS Horizon watch employs a different approach to show time and was created to introduce a smaller unisex version to the collection. To visualize the present moment and distinguish the past from the future, the watch uses a line moving through time space. The past is depicted with a color shade that gradually fades away as it deviates from the present, while the future is represented by darkness. The aim of the project was to create a range of compact wrist watches suitable for all genders.

Makina Andras I

Makina Watches wanted to design a black sheep in the rectangular watch category that's already full of art deco inspired dress watches. That's why Andras I was born as a sports watch with a bolder and more modern approach. Coated in stealth black, its stainless steel case is composed of slopes and angular shapes that make up its multifaceted design. Its octagonal case is designed to taper around a larger movement for less volume and increased wearability. Its dial is multi-layered and 3 dimensional and its strap is muscular and shapely to look more imposing from every angle.

Kratistos

Kratistos is a wristwatch inspired by historical themes of leadership. Four sculpted lugs, shaped after lion fangs, join the leather strap to the case. The lugs hold the watch firmly on the wrist, add comfort and stop the case from rolling. The case is offered in stainless steel and titanium, with a French leather strap available in three sizes. A Swiss automatic movement, a double domed sapphire crystal and luminous indexes complete the design. Each edition is limited, and the lugs require careful artisanal work.

Lyra

Lyra is a pair of hearing aid glasses that joins hearing support with everyday eyewear. A six microphone array captures sound from a selected direction and reduces background noise. A rotatable speaker sits close to the ear canal and provides up to 40 decibels of gain for clearer speech. Adaptive noise reduction and feedback control help in complex sound environments. Lenses can be made for myopia, presbyopia or progressive correction. The intent is to give hearing support a non medical appearance suited to daily use.

UN Blue

Un Blue is a wristwatch designed around the theme of peace. The case is triangular, using the stability of the triangle as a symbol. The case and the glass are tilted by 5.5 degrees, so the dial faces the line of sight and the time can be read quickly. A curved sapphire glass cover keeps the dial clear and protects it. The wristwatch is water resistant to 50 metres. The silicone strap is made from recycled plastic composite waste from military equipment. A detachable leather strap with a reflective coating is also offered.
