Inspired by muscle fibers and the natural process of growth for humans, the ALESSI Grow Watch features a stunning ribbed aesthetic that ripples throughout the entire band and face. Conceived and designed by Andrea Morgante in collaboration with Shiro Studio, the wristwatch has a fluid, organic form that belies its mechanical nature. As put by Shiro Studio, "Grow Watch is an external manifestation of the intimate qualities of our body."
Manufactured by Seiko Instruments in Japan, the ALESSI Grow Watch was recently unveiled in Basel, Switzerland, just last month. Available in five colors (orange, yellow, blue, white and black), it is made out of polyurethane. Flexible, fashionable and functional, the watch would make a great addition to any wardrobe.
