關於 Janus 手錶

Janus係一款配備兩個錶盤同可更換錶帶嘅手錶。兩面都可以使用，佩戴者可以翻轉錶殼、切換錶盤同更換錶帶，配合日常服飾同活動。其中一個錶盤由自動機械機芯驅動，另一個則由石英機芯驅動，可以讀取兩個時區嘅時間。錶殼同超大錶耳採用不鏽鋼製造，並經過長時間嘅拋光工序。錶耳內置隱藏式扣夾系統，毋須額外活動部件就可以固定錶帶。錶帶採用真皮製造。

新聞資料包

由設計師提供嘅製作人員名單、團隊成員同技術詳情。

獨特屬性: This is probably the world first Automatic watch combining dual-dials with interchangeable strap. User can flip and/or switch dials, change straps to match their daily outfit and activities. With its iconic case and oversized lugs, it has charisma and provides extra functionalities for analog watch lovers.
尺寸同包裝: Watchcase: 34mm x 14mm x 43mm
Watch strap: 180mm x 24mm
Watch box: 180mm x 185mm x 65mm
標籤: Dual-dial, Automatic, Analog, Wristwatch, Light luxury, Man accessory
生產技術: We offer a mix of automatic and quartz movements within one case. One side is powered by Chinese Peacock automatic caliber SL1701 while the other side is powered by Japanese Myota quartz. This gives the opportunity for dual time zone and double the space to develop creative dials.

Our unique clipping system has no extra moving parts and only use specific material resistance (from an invisible insert made of PP) to create the clipping spring feature. The design solution is striking visually and drove the design style from inside out, as we didn’t try to conceal it.

The watchcase and lugs are made of high quality steel (316L) with over 8h of polishing process (usual watch are polish under 2h). Our straps are made of genuine leather. Our NATO strap are made of a double-layered polyamide thread combining 3 strain of color to add depth and texture.
設計挑戰: Key challenge was to convince watch factories to produce prototypes and test again and again the various ideas we had. We designed every details, from the screws head to the handles so we had to run prototype for each parts, opening molds and doing refinements a the same time.
研究: Heuristic design research based on guts feeling that something could still be improved in the watch industry. Initially our design had only one dial but we soon realize the potential to duplicate dials and offer dual time zones. The final clipping system for the strap with our semi flexible lug took over 2 years of refinement. We tested ourselves prototypes by wearing them and then adjusting details.
靈感: Janus was born from this deep satisfaction of holding a high quality product. Something that feels right when wearing it. Not everything must be connected. The extra boost you need sometime to get things moving the way you want and to connect with a distant past where machines were crafted.
項目時長: The project started in September 2014 in Shanghai and finished in November 2018 in Shanghai.
操作流程: Operate the watch like a normal watch, use the crowns to set time on both sides.
Un-clip the lugs to change strap.
