關於 Pride 手錶

《Pride》係一款男女皆宜嘅手錶,靈感嚟自世界各地舉辦嘅年度同志遊行。時針、分針同秒針分別帶住彩虹嘅六種顏色,喺錶面上不斷移動,喺一日之中形成唔同嘅色彩組合。每逢正午同午夜,三針對齊,組成完整嘅彩虹,象徵團結。錶殼採用黑色IP不鏽鋼製造,配以隱藏式錶耳,與黑色皮革錶帶無縫連接。40毫米錶殼內裝有日本石英機芯。

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 features six colors that continually move about the face. Twice a day, at both noon and midnight, the colors come together to create the shape of a rainbow. Beauty comes in all colors and is heightened by those colors' alignment. Show your pride with this meaningful timepiece.
尺寸同包裝: The watch weighs .5 lbs, the case's diameter is 40mm and made from Black IP Stainless Steel. The case height is 8.85mm (0.35"). Inside the case, the watch contains a Japanese quartz movement. The watch is water-resistant up to 3 ATM. The band size is 20mm. The band is black and made from leather.
標籤: Pride, LGBTQ+, Rainbow, Unity, Kinetic
生產技術: The pride watch is unisex. It is made of black stainless steel with hidden lugs that connect the band seamlessly. The watch was developed from a combination of watercolor painting, drawing, technical drawings, and models were made using digital design software.
設計挑戰: The design challenge was to create a watch where the primary imagery was part of the watch's function rather than an applied graphic. The hour, minute, and second hands move about the watch, creating varied compositions throughout the day. The watch hands are colorful, but the case and band provide a monochrome, elegant backdrop.
研究: After extensive research on the symbolism of the LGBTQ rights global movement, it was found that the rainbow is the most prevalent symbol. Several design concepts were then created using the rainbow, with the selected option as one in which the hour, minute, and second hands are the rainbow and move about the watch. This was preferred over a graphic application of the rainbow for two reasons: 1. The rainbow would become intrinsic to the function of the watch, 2. The hands come together and form the rainbow, which is a metaphor for unity.
靈感: The pride watch is a timepiece dedicated to those individuals who have bravely stood with pride for the rights of all people. The design is inspired by pride parades that occur annually worldwide, which focus on the global civil rights movement for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, and queer social acceptance.
項目時長: Alex Donahue created the conceptual and technical drawings in Fall 2019. The watch began production in Spring 2020 and was released in Summer 2020. It has been bought by design stores and individuals throughout the world.
操作流程: The watch continually transforms as the rainbow bands move about the case to indicate the hour, minute, and second. They align at midnight and noon to form a full rainbow, a symbol of unity.
