Cool looking Mille: |
Watches are in a real design cul-de-sac at the moment. Very few people
are actually pushing the design envelope IMHO. Interestingly, it's
happening in the low-budget end of the market. Philippe Starck is one
innovator, with the stuff he does for Fossil. I bought a titanium Starck
Fossil watch recently. I just wanted a complete break with all my other
watches, and everything I was seeing in shop windows :

You either like it or hate it. But at least it stands out from the
Rolex/Breitling/TAG "diver's/chrono/innards on show" zzzzzzz clone
brigade. You need a little courage to wear it : it looks pretty Star
Trek on your wrist, actually :-)
Starck just did a watch for Richard Mille too. I'm not crazy about it
though, but it's more interesting than Massa's :

It's a butt ugly, with its exposed star bolts and the way the shape of Typo fixed. the sides is dictated by the way the enclosure is fastened, instead of the other way around. I guess it suits an F1 driver, all very industrial and high tech. You'll find it has nothing to do with how the movement is fastened. It's just another "design". |
website about how the watch is all one piece inside but it didn't make
it very clear exactly how it's done, obviously. There are some clever
touches but nothing that screams "this watch is amazing OMG you must buy
it" to me.

It's certainly expensive - they are dead keen on their titanium parts and carbon fibre trim. I'm sure it improves the performance of the watch no end to have the minutes marked out on a carbon fibre flange. LOL.. <straps on kevlar watch> Go on.. shoot me as hard as you can ! |
