Ora Lattea White -Small

Small Ora Lattea Watch, white. The hands are represented by 2 points. Somewhat recalling the image of the solar system, the biggest dot represents the hour and the smallest dot represents the minutes. The dot in the center remains fixed.  36mm black stainless steel case, black genuine leather strap, 3 ATM water resistance, mineral glass, and battery operated.

The Ora Lattea, designed by Denis Guidone for the Milanese Nava Design of Italy, is an accessory that takes fun of the time, for design lovers that make the imagination and the irony their distinguishing feature. A curious object not to pass unnoticed, a detail that Nava chooses for its spirit of irony. The design is clean and minimalist and finds its ultimate expression in the unconventional reading of time.  It does away with conventional hands, and replaces them with floating dots.

A watch with whirlwind discs that build a very unusual moving dots to indicate time. (See the animation below). 

Because not every timepiece has to be foreboding and serious, Denis Guidone's watches play with the traditional expectation of what a timepiece should be. Designed in collaboration with Italian product brand Nava Design, his four contributions–the Ora, Ora Lattea, Ora Unica, and Tempo Libero–all feature unique design cues, signaling (sometimes with the use of traditional hands) what the time is. For example, the Ora Lattea uses dots, placed where a traditional hand would usually end, while the Ora Unica’s squiggly line’s ends go in place of hands.
