Design

The Pillar

  • Since ancient times, pillars are symbols for stability
  • The vertical load-bearing element in our watch stand is styled like a typical pillar as a round column, resting on a separate rectangular plinth
  • Our luxury watch stand: for the pillars of your collection

The Rod

  • The only visible metal element holds the Support in place
  • Several shapes would be possible and convenient
  • We chose a semi-circle: aesthetically pleasing, geometrically perfect but still practical to avoid contact with the watch

The Support

  • We took offence at usually massive watch support parts in basic watch stands
  • Our Support design does not only rest the watch safe and stable, but does also virtually disappear when viewed from the top
  • It is inspired by typical watch displays in jeweler windows that guide all the attention to the precious watches

The P

  • A unique connection between design and brand name
  • Seen from behind, our WatchPillar® forms the letter P
  • All the individual element desings are not only functional but carefully harmonised to yield the characteristic letter, wich we proudly integrated in our official logo:

The Dome

  • A closure and round optical counterbalance against the rectangular Main Plate
  • We chose a clean dome for unobstructed view
  • A harmonic, literally 'rounded' overall picture was more important to us than the alleged convenience of any type of handle, grip or strap (we include gloves for handling)
  • Mounting and lifting the dome can be a pleasant, ceremonial, perhaps even ritual act that should fully reflect the appreciation of the owner for his precious timepiece

The Insert

  • Its round form is pleasing and we use it to highlight our beloved brand logo (customisation possible)
  • The high-grade milling is far broader than an engraving and creates the optical illusion of an imperfect surface
  • By filling the cut-out with ultra clear resin and subsequent polish, we create a beautifully even surface with seamless wood-resin transition and a marvelous see-through effect
  • The Insert displays a 3D logo under a smooth 2D surface

Alternating shape

  • Our WatchPillar® design shows vertically alternating rectangular and round shapes from the Main Plate all the way up to the Support ... often even up to the watch.
  • This alternation in shape is optically enhanced and fortified by the colouring, implementing dark and light wood

Fine wood

  • Fine and noble wood gives a luxurious but also warm apperance to our WatchPillar®
  • The impressive wood grain makes every WatchPillar® a naturally unique piece
  • We carefully select the individual pieces by hand to maximise the combined pattern beauty
  • Literally from the stem to the final watch stand, we excecute all wood work by hand as well as our own machines in-house.
  • Especially, the wood is hand-polished with ultra-fine grain and then treated with a dedicated 2-step system of bio-certified oil and wax made in Germany. The resulting surface is silky smooth and a joy to touch and feel. As a plus, all substances have certified food quality. So you could safely lick on it...just make sure no one is watching :)
