Description
OUT OF ORDER – FORMA VENTI
FORMA VENTI marks a significant milestone in the evolution of Out of Order. With this model, the Venetian brand introduces its first Jumping Hours complication, opening a new chapter in its creative and technical journey while remaining faithful to its philosophy of combining distinctive design with everyday usability.
As part of the FORMA collection dedicated to shaped watches, FORMA VENTI reinterprets the passage of time through a clear, geometric and contemporary design language inspired by the refined elegance of 1920s Art Deco.
Crafted from polished 316L stainless steel, the rectangular case measures 30.5 × 41 mm with a thickness of only 10.6 mm, achieving a balance between architectural presence, elegance and wearability.
At the heart of the project lies the Jumping Hours complication. Hours are displayed through a rotating disc that advances instantaneously every sixty minutes within a dedicated aperture, while minutes and seconds are indicated on separate semi-circular tracks. This historic complication is reimagined with a modern graphic approach, resulting in an intuitive display that strengthens the watch’s visual identity.
The minimalist lacquered black dial is designed around clarity and balance. The tone-on-tone logo leaves space for the architecture of the indications, while Super-LumiNova® BGW9 for the hours and C3 for minutes and seconds ensure excellent legibility in low-light conditions.
Powering FORMA VENTI is the automatic Seagull ST1721 calibre, featuring 20 jewels and approximately 38 hours of power reserve. Selected and regulated according to Out of Order specifications, it was chosen for its reliability, compact dimensions and coherence with the overall concept.
FORMA VENTI embodies Out of Order’s vision of contemporary watchmaking: timeless design, intelligent mechanics and a strong identity, delivered through an accessible and compelling interpretation of the Jumping Hours complication.
