The goal was to arrive at a design by combining, rethinking and subverting the basic elements of a timepiece. I ignored the conventional assumptions about what a watch should look like and started from 'first principles' to see where such an exploration would lead.
The sum of all these features echo graphic elements from modern works like that of Marc Newson for Alessi during the aughts, and Roger Tallon's asymmetrical D-shaped timepieces, a resemblance Logan says is completely by chance.
After previewing the Omen to a watch-enthusiast friend, he introduced me to other watches with D-shaped outlines. Though slightly disappointed, I wasn't surprised that other designers had also found such a fun and functional watch form.
