Slip Watch

Client: Nonlinear 2011

The Slip Watch was the first product that Clabots released through Nonlinear Studio. The skewed posture of the watch put a new “spin” on the classic archetypal watch shape. The piece was intentionally minimal, with proportions that were almost predictable. However, its skewed posture made the watch appear to be slipping off the band, like a moment caught in time. The shape also offered increased ergonomic functionality, as the wearer could view the timepiece with less turning of the arm. The band also penetrated the casing at the 9 and 12 hour markings, giving reference to an otherwise unmarked face.
