Solar Lab based in Toronto Canada has created a new
unique automatic wristwatch called the Gnomon, which only has a single hand and
has been inspired by the iconic sundial. The design and construction of the
Gnomon watch has taken to Kickstarter this month to raise the required funds it
needs to go into production. The designers and developers of Gnomon explain more
about its unique construction and single-handed watch face.
The Gnomon timepiece features an authentic outlook
recreating Roman classic sundials and a single handed time telling system,
referring to an actual gnomon which is reflected in the name of the watch.
These timepiece and campaign both are the test of our skill and ambitions
through which we want to develop a strong brand with individuality in our
signature watches. Below you can learn even more interesting things about
Gnomon and view spectacular photos of the first prototypes.
The idea to create Gnomon was born from a passion of
researching craftsmanship of watchmaking and the history of timepieces itself.
Our very small but talented team was drown together by this goal and we started
to work on the project in 2016.
Gnomon is now available to back via Kickstarter with
early bird pledges starting from just CA$ 295 and delivery expected to take
place during March 2018. For full specifications and more information jump over
