The Dodecagon Watch has been designed by Jaekyu Jung for Weekend-Works.com and features an [unorthodox aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gav01-series) that is sure to be a hit amongst discerning consumers seeking out a different kind of wrist accessory.

The timepiece features a [polygonal crystal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anoma-a1-optical) that sits on top of the face to obscure it slightly and allow the glowing hands to mysteriously float beneath the surface. This brings a new experience to the act of time telling, while the visually striking aesthetic puts a focus on [modernistic design features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/type-8-daniel-engelberg) that are quickly becoming a must-have for style-conscious consumers.

The Dodecagon Watch is packaged in a minimally designed case that draws inspiration from the product itself to convey a sense of surprise and delight upon receiving and opening.
