A
One-Handed/One Disc mystery dial that features two very cool indicators of time - the outer
individual combined-hour/minute hand and a center seconds disc (with
S+arck logo).
This
elementary
philosophy is the basic idea behind this one-hand watch
with its astonishingly simple approach to time-keeping: it makes
do with just one hand – the hour hand. This moves just like the hour
hand of any normal watch with several hands – in other words, every 12
hours it completes one full rotation. Except that this hand is almost
completely obscured by the central seconds disc. Only the tip is in
view on the outer edge near the bezel where the approximate time is
shown.
The simplified dial
means that the one-hand watch provides an approximate idea of the
current time at a glance (e.g. shortly before three o'clock). If a more
precise indication of the time is required, the many gradations
on the outer dial allow you to work out the exact time, accurate to more or
less one minute, by judging the position of the hand in between two of
the five-minute lines. The great strength however, lies in
everyday time-keeping and the fact that the time of day is shown "at a
glance" by an analogue and graphic representation of the day. Few designers have been as prolific as Paris-born Philippe Stark. An
extraordinary mix of rock star, mad inventor, romantic philosopher and
leading edge designer, Starck has worked tirelessly and passionately to
transform the perceptions and realities of our daily lives, touching the
deepest wallsprings of our consciousness to evoke response and
reconsideration while pioneering a vision of de-materialization. The
latest from his line of watches, developed by Fossil, include these two
Mystery Dial selections. via Hypebeast.com
