W1 Wristwatch
Client
NTN
This timepiece is characterised by a domed solid metal case which has been CNC machined to also create the watch face. The snap fitted case back has been carefully refined to be as clean as possible, giving the watch a seamless quality.
The increments are printed onto the crystal, floating over the hands and date window below. These elements are all driven by a Swiss made Ronda 705 movement.
The straps were all produced from vegetable tanned full-grain leather sourced from Britain and Italy. Each strap was die cut, hand sewn, stamped and waxed by our small team.
The W1/D was fully made in Ireland. We produced it in limited quantities by hand in our Dublin studio. It was packaged in a wool felt box, together with a tin of organic Irish beeswax for conditioning the aniline leather strap.
Production of the W1 concluded in 2018.
