Alternative ways of telling time and micro brands
Can you imagine one of the "big" watch groups making this watch? This is one of the reasons I like microbrands. Sure a lot of them make traditional looking watches which is great but there are others like Xeric that dare to be different. Can you tell the time on my watch? It's already been set to regular time 🤣

Hello everyone I have been collecting watches for over 25 years now, I have way too many but I honestly love them all no matter what brand they are. I've recently left social media and now find myself...

I have a few microbrands and love them all.
None of mine require a manual to learn how to tell the time though.
Was close to pulling the trigger on this from Project Watches. It’s only $150, but I am watched out at the moment. Still, I like artistic pieces. Blue block is hours, red block is minutes. Yellow is seconds. 🤔
I own a Xeric as well. Really love it. Love that green on yours.

I, too, like original designs from micro brands. But I’m still on the fence with Xeric…
I have a version of this watch and it's an absolute gem. Very steampunk aesthetic that no major brand will try and it's much easier to read than it looks at first glance. Agree that the small brands harbor unsung treasures. The world doesn't need the 500th version of a dive watch nobody will use for diving.
Love Xeric's left-filed designs ... Might even buy one some day!.👍

Pretty solid watches i have to say
its solar with no moving parts or batteries.
This is so you. After the Concept S average looking watches don't seem to fit your style. Super cool and awesome 🔥

I'm sufficiently confused 🤣

Its a sundial that uses prism light to point to the time
You can do the same with a cloudy marble and a horizontal disk around it.
