About Just Käekell

Just on käekell, mis on loodud kellaaja kiireks ja mugavaks vaatamiseks. Korpus on lame ja nurga all, olles paksem kella kaheteistkümne asendi poolel, nii et numbrilaud on suunatud kandja poole. Kellaaega saab vaadata randmega pööramata, näiteks autot juhtides või tööriistadega töötades. Korpuse tagaküljele on paigaldatud kindel keermestatud raam, mis asendab tavapäraseid aasu ja hoiab 22 mm rihma tugevalt paigal. Krooni asukoht võimaldab kella kanda nii vasakul kui ka paremal randmel. Viis numbrilaua versiooni ühendavad araabia numbreid ja pulkindikaatoreid. Korpuse mõõtmed on 42 mm x 42 mm x 15 mm.

Unique Properties
From a wrist presence perspective, the watch has unique and minimalistic styling. It has the size and weight to grab the attention of those around it without being intrusive. The casing is flat and angled to your face. In fact, it is much thicker at the 12 oclock side of the watch. This has the effect of positioning the watch face at such an angle that allows the wearer to look at the time without needing to turn the wrist.

Production Technology
Unique Lugs construction means the right fit.
A man should never wear his wristwatch loose. A separate solid screw-in frame is fitted to the back of the watch case, and fulfils the role of the standard watch lugs with a 22 mm width. The strap is attached reliably to the frame for a perfectly snug fit.
Design Challenge
When choosing a watch, it is important to consider the type of dial, its aesthetic and functionality. The dial is the first thing people notice, and is the focal point for the watchs style. The five watch faces contain the hour and minute markers and were created in five classic arabic numeral and stick combinations. The natural affinities between the five dials are based on the main visual representations of the Just watch style.
Research
The new watch collection is based on numerous values, a passion for achievement, and the quest for technical and aesthetic excellence. We hope to give rise to a collection of exceptional watches that will have success among connoisseurs and devotees of future-oriented watches. The Kibardin timepieces line is shifting up a level with new watches endowed with high quality technology and designs.
Inspiration
Dedicated to the world of the brave, the independent, and the strong, the JUST watchs powerful and refined aesthetic pays homage to the various reliability and design hallmarks of vehicle dashboards and lifesaving apparatus.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2015 in Prague and finished in August 2017 in Hong Kong, new improved limited edition was initiated in January 2021.
Operation Flow
Your watch is with you whenever you need time functions - you are face to face with it every time you slide behind the wheel. Its shape is integral to its function. A watch should be easy and pleasing to look at, as well as look cool in your car.

Due to the crowns novel position, the watch can be worn on the left or right wrist, and you can read the time without needing to turn your wrist while your hands are on the steering wheel, on the desk during a business meeting or rendezvous, or working hard with tools.
