One hand and that’s it!

Mono-hand watches charm us through their novel take on the passing hours, inciting us to read the passage of time differently and live at our own personal pace.

Audemars Piguet
For her
The Millenary Frosted Gold Philosophique invites sophisticates to re-appropriate the philosophy of time by reading it as an approximation. Neither will they resist this watch’s alternating satin-brushed and frosted-gold finishing, a technique owed to Florentine jewellery designer Carolina Bucci.

Jaquet Droz
Sleek
All-black good looks for the 43mm onyx and steel Grande Heure Onyx. Its single hand incites us to take our time, turning through a 24-hour dial so we read the time approximately. How pleasant!

Van Cleef & Arpels
Poetic
The Midnight Heure d’Ici Heure d’Ailleurs watch’s whimsical name points up its dual-time-zone movement. The dial in black brass and pink gold displays a single retrograde-minutes hand with two jumping-hours apertures.

Bulgari
Fun
Sporting the familiar signatures of two renowned Italian names, Bulgari and Maserati, and powered by the BVL 262 calibre mechanical movement, the Octo Maserati Mono-Retro GranLusso offers an entertaining reading of the time with its jumping hours and retrograde minutes.
