Lechner wristwatches

Client: Lechner Watches

Year: 2019

Designed with Balázs Kismarty-Lechner

In 2018 I got the opportunity to work with Lechner Watches on a new range. The project was very inspiring. My work didn't stop by finishing the CAD files. I participated the manufacturing process as well.


Ödön Lechner was a Hungarian architect who created buildings in art noveau style. His buildings are famous for their ornaments and colorful rooftops. These watches are a bow to his creations. The dials of the watch recall the tiles of the Hungarian Institute of Geology and Geophysics.

MOVEMENT

DIALS

Hexa has a two, Hexa Chrono has a three layered dial. The first layer is black and it has the numbers in white. Chrono's 2nd layer is a colored hexagonal grid. The bottom layer is colored as well in both cases. This one has the Lechner logo in white and the small dial circles in the Chrono version.
