Contempus 2.0

Contempus is a brand from New York. This is their second attempt on KS. There are 2 basic models that differs by the size. Amfiteatro and Kupolo for ladies and gents respectively. The sizes are 36mm and 42mm.

The difference is not only in size but in the dial also. Here is the description.

The concept of this watch for men has the dial as you can see on the pictures below. Here is for men…

& for ladies like this.

We also designed black versions of this dials.

This collection was a challenge to develop, because it had to be connected with the first one. But we were asked to propose something new and more contemporary in details. We had inspiration from architecture and minimalist graphics from trendy UX\UI interfaces. We tried to stay more traditional in a way of forming the dial, but more crazy in reading time. This can be difficult at first. At the first stage of the development we proposed more than 10 proposals of the dials like on this picture.

But finally we decided to have applied indices.

The web site of Contempus is here. You can find cool pictures of this project.

We were so busy...

…and forgot to share our news with you.

We were not updating our web-site for a while. We were developing few projects that you will see on the market very soon. Working on different projects is a good training and it keeps your mind working 360 degrees. As you can see in our design portfolio we have watches from 200$ for a piece to 60K$. Our reason: we want to work with different customers, for different markets, to understand (feel) the trends on the market and be appropriate.

The watch doesn’t just have to be “amazing” or recognizable, you need to find your customers, you need to sell your watches. The way people react to a new watch depends on many factors. And emotions are the core reason. The positive reaction to the design is the key to the hearts. The second but not the last is the price, to make your customer closer to decision to buy your product.

Isotope brand is very interesting brand to work with. We are very happy to help them creating their concept into life.
