Ora Unica Watch



Today, I might have good news for everyone out there who is looking for a creative watch of high quality. I lately discovered the Ora Unica which – instead of hands- has a squiggly line to represent the hours and minutes. At first, I didn’t really understand how to read the time from that timepiece but after a while, the doodles became clear to me. With one end marking the hours and the other end the minutes, the resulting doodle changes as time passes. But how can one single line have two independently moving ends? Well, that’s the question I asked myself until I finally found out that there are actually two lines, each one printed on a transparent disc. 

The unisex watch is designed by Denis Guidone, an award-winning Italian designer who studied architecture before starting his career as a watch designer for the Italian brand NAVA. By the way, “Ora Unica” simply means “One Hour”.

I really love this wristwatch and keep wondering how a childish doodle can look that stylish and elegant!
