EW-01.
A watch that asks a different question.
Every watch asks the same question: what time is it? The EW01 was designed around a larger one: what does it mean that you are here at all? Every part of it, from the stone to the stars to the engraving no one else sees, exists to keep that question within reach.

An Elusive Vision.
For years, the same idea kept returning: a philosophical object you could actually wear. An armillary sphere, small enough for the wrist, turning as you move. A kinetic sculpture. Making it real meant finding a master watchmaker in Japan, and two years of prototypes that failed, again and again, before one finally ran the way it was drawn.

4 Philosophies, One Instrument.
Inspired by four of humanity’s oldest obsessions: the earth beneath us, the stars above, the struggle between, and the fire within. A moving armillary. A dial cut from real stone. A mechanism built to carry them both. Part sculpture, part instrument, and unlike anything else you could put on your wrist.

A mechanism built from scratch to carry them both. Part sculpture, part instrument, and unlike anything else you could put on your wrist.

Material Science.
Inside the EW01 is a complex negotiation between beauty and physics. Titanium components gives the watch its lightness, the armillary finished in rose gold so it glows against the dial. Natural aventurine gives the dial its depth, each slice carrying a starfield of mineral inclusions that cannot be repeated. 316L stainless steel gives the case its strength and its resistance to the elements. Sapphire, the hardest material protects the whole composition beneath a high dome displaying the complication like a work of art behind museum glass.

Automatic Movement
A Philosophy In Motion.
Two years went into a bespoke complication that turns three independent axes and governs a retrograde minute display, all running from a robust automatic foundation. The movement is carefully hand assembled and regulated each piece to within ±8 seconds a day.

Illuminating
Deep Thoughts.
Every philosopher knows the hour after midnight, when the house is still and thought runs deepest. The EW01 was designed to keep you company in it. Black in daylight and luminous in the dark, the entire watch comes a live after dark, every element is illuminated.

Every philosopher knows the hour after midnight, when the house is still and thought runs deepest. The EW01 was designed to keep you company in it. Black in daylight and luminous in the dark, the entire watch comes a live after dark, almost every element is illuminated including the black paint.

The Armillary, Reimagined.
Built for the EW01 alone, the complication translates the steady beat of an automatic movement into two very different motions: the slow orbit of the hours and the climbing arc of the minutes. Three titanium axes, light enough to turn and strong enough to last, form an armillary in miniature, an instrument scholars once used to understand the sky.
