Monograph Mechanical Watch

red dot award: product design 2008

The Monograph is an innovative single-handed watch with integrated stop function. In contrast to common timers the central hand measures the time in 5-minute increments. The three timing hands – a razor-thin central second hand, the small 30-minute hand, and the twelve-hour hand – move across dials contrasting in colours. The automatic movement Valjoux 7750 drives the Monograph, which can be viewed through a glass back fastened with seven screws. The automatic movement is decorated with Geneva stripes and blued screws. If the watch is worn every day winding becomes unnecessary. A spinning rotor transfers the kinetic power of each arm movement to the mechanism. A convex sapphire front glass opens the view on the harmonious dial.
