"You can easily recognize Ressence, an independent watchmaker, from the crowd with its uncanny watches that make time telling unique, detailed, and exceptionally designed. For its latest iteration, the Type 3 MN, Ressence founder Benoît Mintiens has collaborated with Australian design genius, Marc Newson (a name we know from the first Apple Watch), and the result is easily the most intriguing watch in the industry."
"The Newson-design Type 3 has an elliptical design, a striking color palette, domed sapphire, and graphic hands all echoing Apple's design language, which is paired with Ressence's own oil-filled chamber dial and the ROCS-driven rotating Grade 5 titanium discs. It has a unique time-telling experience: the mechanism allows the accessory discs to revolve around the dial on multiple axis, instead of the usual hand movement."
"Of course, Type 3 MN is a Ressence, but unlike the Type 8 with handwoven Indigo-dyed silk dial or its sibling with geometric display and a joyful palette, it has Newson's design approach reflected in it. Marc Newson was inducted into Apple by the good old Jony Ive. Both are known for their amazing projects at the Cupertino company, including the first Apple Watch. The duo has now co-founded a creative collective called LoveFrom."
Ressence and Marc Newson collaborated on the Type 3 MN, blending Ressence's mechanical innovations with Newson's Apple-influenced aesthetics. The watch features an elliptical case, domed sapphire crystal, a striking color palette, and graphic hands paired with Ressence's oil-filled chamber dial and ROCS-driven rotating Grade 5 titanium discs. The upper dial chamber holds 3.57 ml of silicone oil while magnets drive disc movement and the mechanism allows accessory discs to revolve on multiple axes, creating a floating-time visual effect. The design references Newson's history with Apple and his LoveFrom collaboration with Jony Ive.
