The current timepiece is a remarkable collaboration between independent watchmaker Vianney Halter and the renowned German luxury leather brand Goldpfeil. Known for his distinctive retro-futuristic style, Vianney Halter draws inspiration from the steam punk genre, resulting in a watch that exudes a captivating mechanical aesthetic. The watch showcases a unique arrangement, with the jumping hour displayed in the top left aperture, the moon phases featured in the top right aperture, and the minute and second hands presented on the rectangular dial below. Fascinating and thought provoking, this timepiece showcases an asymmetrical elegance that is achieved through smartly proportioned geometric elements.
