Production Technology: Bauhaus is made of surgical grade 316L stainless steel coated through a physical vapor deposition process which makes the final piece extremely resistant to corrosion, scratches and dings; the 5ATM/50M water resistance rate allows it to be submerged in water without internal damage; and the innovative quick release system in every All Mies strap, enables an easy and quick change of style in a matter of seconds.
Design Challenge: In order to achieve a high-end design watch following industry quality standards with an affordable final price tag to our consumers, we had to strategically rethink design to delivery as a whole. The Bauhaus model dictates form as much as it lets form follows function. By simultaneously laying out concept and manufacturing processes, a powerful synergy is created, allowing ideas and product development to be symmetrically aligned to design and financial parameters.
Research: The All Mies brand was established following the Miesian style. Every product and packaging are created to be simple and bold by embracing clean lines and a minimalist approach. All designs are generated through the understanding of its function. Tying the functionality of a piece to the establishment of its design enables the whole concept to achieve a holistic approach.
Inspiration: Bauhaus was envisioned to be elemental and yet, bold; an effortless blend of elegance with simplicity. While extracting elements from the Miesian style such as clean lines and a minimal framework, the timepiece expands on the concept by defying symmetry and conformity with subtle elements. The little breaks in consistency creates a final model that exudes versatility and boldness. It is a respectful understanding of the past while fiercely defining the future.
Project Duration: June 2018 to November 2018. Los Angeles/CA, USA
Operation Flow: The watch can be set using the crown. One pull to the first step or click to set the date on the subdial. One pull to the second step or click to set the hour and minutes.
