Description
I have always wondered: does time have a shape? Time is fluid and shapeless, just like water, which is also fluid and shapeless. However, water takes the natural form of a snowflake. So, if time had a shape, it would most likely be the hexagon of a snowflake. Thus, I decided to design a watch in the shape of a snowflake.
The most beautiful expression of transparent materials is in straight lines and facets, fully showcasing their visual appeal. This watch clearly and fully expresses each facet, presenting the beauty of transparency completely, unlike the interwoven and chaotic facets of a diamond. To maximize the unique charm of the transparent material, the watch uses a transparent plate to connect the manual tourbillon movement with the case, making the movement appear to float in the air and showcasing the mechanical ballet of the tourbillon. This design allows the dynamic vitality of the mechanism to be displayed in the best way, achieving a unity of function and form.
Snowflake is the perfect combination of dynamic mechanics and feminine beauty.
