Contemporary lines
Inspired by the lines of the famous Villa Malaparte and the codes of Modern architecture, this model with a geometric aesthetic reveals a contemporary and refined design.
For this 23mm rectangular watch, we have worked on the side facets of the case with different finishes of polished and brushed bringing colors and shines.
High-end details
To obtain a watch that meets our requirements, we have selected the best materials and manufacturing techniques. Known for its aesthetic qualities and durability, our cases are made of 316L stainless steel, a hypoallergenic alloy used by luxury watchmaking houses. The movement that drives the Modernist is an extra slim quartz from the famous Japanese firm Miyota. More respectful of the environment, our vegetable tanned straps are handmade from French or Italian leathers.
Unique Materials
Always looking for originality, we source exclusive and delicate materials in partnership with suppliers ensuring their traceability.
Peacock feathers, rare leathers or cigar leaves are some examples of the creations that make the Modernist collection unique.
