Defakto Akkord Modular has won German Design Award 2016 Special Mention
October 29th, 2015 | Posted by in General - (0 Comments)We now offer a black PVD rotor with special ARCHIMEDE engraving for Selitta 200 movements. The rotors for Eta movements will follow soon.
Available for Klassik 42 & 39, OutDoor and SportTaucher. The price is EUR 120. This stunning rotor can be ordered in our ARCHIMEDE OnlineShop. |
The integrated minimalist design of the Defakto Kinetik has the aim to visually emphasize the interaction of transiting watch-hands.
All three watch-hands are connected to the ETA 2824-2 automatic swiss movement via three identical disks. The sweeping second brings continuous movement to the setup. Due to the look through ability of the watch-hands the watch offers a very good readability.
Designed with the same lineweight the angular, skeletonized watch-hands constantly frame indexes, create symmetrical pattern or interlace if superimposed.
The in-house manufactured, compact, three-piece stainless steel Ickler watchcase comes with a slightly brushed texture and has a diameter of 39 mm. The matte unicolor background of the dial contrasts sharply to the separated minute and hour indexes in contrary color.
Specification Defakto Kinetik:
- 3-piece 39 mm stainless steel case
- black models PVD coated
- Automatic Swiss made ETA 2824-2
- Stainless Steel clasp with logo
- Sapphire Crystal
