關於 Nu 腕錶

Nu係一款錶面注入咗水嘅腕錶。錶面盛載嘅水採集自全球一啲污染最嚴重嘅水源,並經紫外光消毒。透明亞加力膠指針浸喺水入面,幾乎完全隱形。觸摸鋼製錶殼會啟動發光二極管,照亮指針顯示時間。錶殼頂部鑲有拱形藍寶石玻璃,錶帶則採用仙人掌皮革製成。整體造型仿照露珠停駐喺葉片上嘅輪廓。藍色寓意純淨無瑕嘅海洋。

新聞資料包

由設計師提供嘅製作人員名單、團隊成員同技術詳情。

獨特屬性: The watch dial is filled with water collected from the world's dirtiest water sources.
Within the water-filled dial are the watch's clear acrylic hands (powered by a Swiss Quartz Movement). They stay almost invisible in the water until you touch the watch metal body (which acts as a touch-sensitive switch), then they come to life by directing a beam of light (from an LED) through them. They glow within the murky water to show the time.
尺寸同包裝: Case diameter 38mm, thickness 12mm, strap width 20mm.
標籤: watch, minimal, timepiece, design, unconventional, water, environment,
生產技術: Domed sapphire glass with an anti-reflective coating on both sides will top the watch 316L High-quality steel case. The strap will be made of all-natural, cruelty-free cactus leather with a magnetic clasp. The polluted water inside the dial will be sterilized using UV. Swiss Quartz Movement.
設計挑戰: The biggest challenge for us was to design a conversation piece that would elegantly convey our message. We want to talk about water pollution without actually talking about it.
研究: We started with a simple question: How can we attract people's attention to a subject matter that they prefer to ignore? We did some research and talked to few experts in the fields of psychology and human behaviour. We found out that the best way to gain someone's attention is to arouse their curiosity. People tend to remember the answers better if they are the ones asking the questions. We designed Nu to be a conversation piece, an object to intrigue.
靈感: Nu was born out of our concern for the environment; we aimed to attract people's attention to water pollution and the fact that time is running out for all of us to do something about it.
The morning dew inspired Nu's design. Like a water droplet on top of a leaf, the watch sits on top of the strap; the body shape follows the droplet's contour, and the pristine ocean inspired the blue colour.
項目時長: The project started in December 2020 in Toronto and finished in February 2021 in Krakow.
操作流程: The watch's hands are made from clear acrylic, and they are submerged in water; the refractive index of clear acrylic is close to that of water, making the hands look almost invisible. To see the time, the user touches the watch metal body. The body acts as a touch-sensitive switch for the LED, located at the base of both watch hands; it will light up, illuminating the hands.
