Description
HR Giger (5 February 1940 12 May 2014), who won an Oscar for his work on Alien, deserves to be counted amongst the greatest of all Swiss artists. This truly one-of-a-kind timepiece was the last project on which he collaborated with Daniel Strom. Its case features heads and skull parts taken from Gigers human/machine figure Biomechanoid, while the dial forms a spectacular relief in silver that is modelled after one of the artists most famous works. This wristwatch wields a primeval, hypnotic power that is fully unleashed when viewed up close and has a unique feel that makes you want to grasp it and touch it again and again in new and exciting ways. Handmade. Silver version available in a limited edition of 99 watches. Made in Switzerland.
Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
