At first glance, the 'Cemento' doesn't look like just any matte black watch, but rather sets itself apart with a Brutalist design aesthetic. Designed by Giuliano Mazzuoli, the 'Cemento' watch is, as the name suggests, crafted using cement to fashion the casing of the timepiece.
Purported to be the world's first timepiece crafted using cement, the 'Cemento' wristwatch is crafted using a building material, but finished to perfection. The sleek cement casing has been sculpted and crafted seamlessly to create a timepiece worthy of even the most discerning of connoisseurs. The watch features a self-winding automatic movement with a 40-hour power reserve to boot.
The 'Cemento' matte black watch is set to be made available for purchase at a price point of $4,900, although the exact availability remains unknown at the time of publication.
