Optic Instruments based in Henley-on-Thames in the
United Kingdom have created a unique wrist worn timepiece in the form of the
Horizon Watch, which offers owners an intuitive design available in a range of
five different finishes and styles. Unlike other watches the Horizon
watch doesn’t display time second by second or even minute by minute, but
provides “waypoints” in each hour, quarter-past, half-past and quarter-to the
hour.
The British designed watch is manufactured in
Switzerland and displays all 24 hours in your day in full, splitting the watch
face into light hours and dark hours, early morning and evening. “The HORIZON
was designed to be recognisable as an OPTIK INSTRUMENT immediately – nothing
else like it. The disc design is the most prominent part of the HORIZON and it
should be; function before form. However the supporting parts are all equally
as important and we have spent over a year refining the design.”
Pledges are now available from £ 199 for early bird
backers offering a massive 50 percent saving off the recommended retail price,
with shipping expected to take place during September 2018 if all goes well
with the manufacturing process.
