THE PROJECT
THE CONCEPT
The Idea behind the project is to create a watch that is combining simplicity with the complexity of modern swiss watchmaking.
The concept can be explained in 3 words:
Mechanical
Monolayer
Modular
INSPIRATION
Creating a new and unique watch case is a difficult challenge.
The idea behind the Funder case is a simplistic approach where the case is made in one piece of titanium and uses a unique curvature to combine every element of the watch into one visual piece.
The design takes also inspiration from the monobloc cases that where especially present during the 1970´s.
THE COMPLICATION
There are 3 different moonphase complications that are available
- Phases
- Days
- State
Each of them offers 3 new and different ways to read the phases of the moon.
MODULARITY
The concept is using a unique modular system that makes it possible to change between various cases, straps and movements.
DANISH DESIGN
Thomas Funder is born and raised in Odense, Denmark.
He had his Design education at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen as well as UID in Sweden.
The Scandinavian design approach has had a big influence on the creation of the first collection, where scandinavian minimalism is exercised in a fine balance with Swiss watchmaking.
SWISS MADE
Every watch is made in Switzerland and has been developed in a close collaboration with the manufacture to achieve the best possible result.
The partnership with the watchangles manufacture has made it possible to innovate and make the unique concept become a reality.
