Layered Steel Timepieces

These Minus-8 Traditional Watches Focus on Design Quality Over Technology

While many watch designs these days are focusing on taking the wrist wear into the future -- adding ways to interact with the wearer and provide as much information as possible -- some brands want to stick to the traditional watches.

Instead of adding touch-screens or biometric data, these basic timepieces flaunt their well-made design. Minus-8 uses a technique of layering steel in six different steps, creating a durable strong and stunning watch.

The Minus 8 traditional watches come in various designs, some round, some square -- with different background colors to fit different personalities. Without reinventing the form of watches, the precise surgical design is timeless and lasts for generations. A perfect piece to pass on from father to son, this suave wrist wear is classic.
