The 'Ultratime 002' Watch is a modern take on a classic accessory that will provide wearers with an artistic piece of equipment that is unlike any other on the market. The timepiece features half of the face obscured from view that relies on the wearer's internal clock to know whether it's morning, afternoon, evening or night and eliminates the traditional 12-hour cycle. This is accented by color blocking portions that create a playful visual experience as they shift throughout the day to reveal different shades and patterns.
Winner of the 2018 K-Design Award, the 'Ultratime 002' Watch is the design work of todot design and acknowledges the shifting nature of fashion aesthetics as designers look to focus on abstract minimalism in varying degrees.
