Description
On 24th Feb 2022, a war of all human concerns broke out on the blue planet. Although we have sent instruments into the universe to overlook the earth, we still have not learned how to live with our neighbors. The purpose of creating this watch is to “Pray For World Peace”, as Ernest Hemmingway said: Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.
This watch uses an original movement. We changed the gear ratio of the movement, the hour hand rotates 30° while the minute hand rotates 390°. Now it is possible to read time with only one hand, the earth is the only hand, and the anti-war symbol is the time indicator to tell hour and minute. We named the technology “Asynchronous Follow”.
The hour hand (earth) is micro-carved according to the real proportions of the oceans and land, simulating the real terrain of the northern hemisphere. Using the anti-war mark as an indicator. By pointing to the static hour ring and rotating minute ring, the hour and minute can be accurately read.
The watch presents a concise and smooth curve, it is a minimalist design without a lug and hand.
