AQUASPHERE FOR TECHNOMARINE

A Unique Timepiece Inspired by the Depths of the Ocean

Inspired by the beaches of Saint-Tropez, the Aquasphere watch is a highly original timepiece created by Swiss watchmaker TechnoMarine in collaboration with designer Federico Restrepo. This unique watch combines TechnoMarine's technical expertise with Restrepo's passion for the sea and love for nature.

The Aquasphere collection stands out with its innovative use of water in the dial, reminiscent of the depths of the ocean. The case, made of stainless steel, measures 42mm in diameter and features a double row of 176 diamonds. Inside, an ISA Swiss movement with a battery life of six years powers the timepiece.

What sets the Aquasphere apart is the mother of pearl dial, adorned with 28 free-moving freshwater cultured pearls. This combination of precious materials and delicate design creates a truly unique and poetic object, dedicated to dreamers and lovers of uniqueness.

The design process for the Aquasphere presented several challenges. The creation of a spherical glass and its perfect alignment with the steel base required meticulous craftsmanship. Additionally, the inclusion of water in the watch and the addition of pearls demanded a lengthy and intricate process, given the delicate and expensive nature of these materials.

The Aquasphere was launched exclusively at Colette and Amazon USA in November 2013. Since then, it has garnered recognition and acclaim, including the Iron A' Design Award in the Jewelry, Eyewear, and Watch Design category in 2014. This prestigious award is given to well-designed, practical, and innovative creations that meet professional and industrial requirements.

The Aquasphere watch is not just a timepiece; it is a symbol of elegance, innovation, and a deep connection to the sea. With its unique design and attention to detail, it offers pleasure and joy to those who appreciate the beauty of art, architecture, and design in their everyday lives.
