Mono-Colored Luxury Timepieces

The Issey Miyake TO Watch Was Updated with a Mono-Color Design

Issey Miyake, known for its luxurious timepiece designs, is continuing its update spree with the re-launch of the TO Watch. The brand's timepieces have recently gained popularity due to their unique designs. This updated piece features mono-colored designs in gold, silver, and black colorways.

The TO Watch appears to have been carved out of metal. The gold colorway boasts a light gold finish throughout the whole timepiece, including the matching strap. Consumers can also purchase the TO Watch in all-silver. Both designs reflect the brand's unique approach to timepiece manufacturing, complete with minimal design codes. The all-black colorway features the same smooth design. TO Watches feature a hidden crown where the dial appears to have recessed into two discs.
