Alexander Shorokhoff’s ‘Crazy Eyes’ watch continues the line of avant-garde timepieces by the brand and sets new standards in terms of artistic design ideas and colours.
Company founder, Alexander Shorokhov’s imagination, inspired by the artistic and unique works of Gustav Klimt, has been realised in this new chronograph. Different sized eyes, each crafted in various colours, form the main concept of the dial. They are slightly raised from the dial, giving the avant-garde scene a three-dimensional appearance.
The other elements of the dial, with their unique shapes and colours, complement the overall composition which was initially challenging to assemble. The dial consists of multiple layers, numerous different appliques, and various materials such as mother-of-pearl, brass, and multiple colours.
The number 60 remains where it belongs on all Alexander Shorokhoff watches, symbolising the 60 minutes of an hour and the revolutionary era of the arts in the 1960s. Complementing the avant-garde and eccentric face of the new chronograph, a suitable strap was created: a dark blue crocodile leather strap with orange and yellow stitching.
The case of the ‘Crazy Eyes’ is a completely new development. With a diameter of 42 mm and a height of only 12.40 mm, it is remarkably slim for a hand-engraved chronograph movement of caliber 2030.DD. The side-rounded design of the case and the pushers gives the watch an elegant and modern aesthetic.
The ‘Crazy Eyes’ model, limited to just 39 pieces, is a successful and innovative work of art for the wrist that fully aligns with the brand’s philosophy.
