EXTRATERRESTRIAL METAL
The scarcity of this meteorite turns the Streamline into a unique watch, and each piece is a one-off. Each case is cut within a block of meteorite before machining, in order to determine the direction of the lattice.
RETRO-FUTURISTIC DESIGN
Inspired by the Art-deco style, the Streamline is the reflection of another space-time but remains deeply rooted in its period.
David Rutten has restyled aperture watches with jumping-hours from the 30’s. This layout puts the emphasis on the metal of the case, which aim is to magnify the pattern of the meteorite.
FORGED IN SPACE, MADE IN SWITZERLAND
Made in Switzerland, this jumping-hour mechanism has exclusively been developed for the Streamline. The frequency is 28800 bph (4hz) and it offers a power reserve of 5 days.
The presentation-case of the Streamline is the representation of a miniature space observatory resting on a marble base, with its designer’s initials written in cuneiform.
