Unique Properties: After being Art Director and Founder of several groups of design I decided to work for myself and grow my creative Accessories Brand. The beginning follows one of my addictions: The watches and time pieces.

Design Challenge: Inrtroducing a new shape and a model far from the established Rolex and other Brands. But related to a vey deep history.
Research: I am a fa,n amateur of watches since my youth
Inspiration: The real start of this project is the curve and the shape of the planets in the Universe that are in fact not round but elliptical as the movements referring the Kepler rules. So to make a new way of exploration I decided after some travels in Concord from Paris to NY, to rehabilitate the elliptical shapes for timepieces. Ignoring at this time that so many famous Brands had used that shape on the 70'S.
Project Duration: Project started in 2020 and after 1 year we have produce a collection of 5 models .
Operation Flow: All our watches are produced with an AA grade quality elements. All genuine design and bespoke creativity
