INSPIRATION: The design evolved from the previous generation called Simple Code II. In this design, I not only simplified more on the elements, keeping it more towards minimalism, but also added one complication which allows user customization, meanwhile, I want to make it easier to catch attention and also easy to read the time.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This design incorporates a bold accent color not only adding visual interest but also highlighting the date and day-in-week mark, which run in an arch connecting to the time index, creating a visually striking spiral effect. In addition to the accent color, the watch features a second counter in the center, providing an alternative way to read the seconds in addition to the traditional second hand.
