The standard shape and design aesthetic of traditional watches is being played with more as consumers crave a certain level of deviation from ordinary designs, which is evident with the 'Erstartt' 3D-Printed Unisex Watch. Created by designer Paul Kweton, the 'Erstartt' 3D-Printed Unisex Watch is designed to sit adjacent to the wrist rather than directly on it, which changes the perception of the timepiece and grabs attention.
The 'Erstartt' 3D-Printed Unisex Watch is, as the name denotes, created using 3D printing technology, which gives it a sturdy, geometrical aesthetic that's suitable for either men or women. A soft, off-white color scheme mixed with a blue and green strap make the 'Erstartt' 3D-Printed Unisex Watch effortlessly simple enough for everyday wear.
