Start your day out strong with these bold, brightly coloured Camouflage Toywatch from Heb Milano.A Japanese sensation born in Italy, Heb Milano blends the history and technical aspects of Hebdomas (Switzerland) and the fashion sense of Italian tastemakers. It is this combination of the classic goodness of Swiss watches with contemporary Italian design that has fueled Heb Milano’s leap into becoming a must-have for accessory enthusiasts in Japan.
Made of stainless steel and clear polycarbonate, these watches are both stylish and tough. Polycarbonate, as you may know, is lightweight but very strong and durable (more on this material below).
Although created with the gentlemen in mind, the ladies have been taking notice, too, and the large 45mm case hasn’t stop many style-savvy Japanese women from picking up one for themselves :-)
Other features and functions: Quartz movement, three-hand with date display, threaded type crown.
(RRP ￥23,100 JPY)
HEBDOMASHebdomas is a small but famous trademark from the Manufacture d'Horlogerie Schild & Co. SA watchmaker. Located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, the company has been producing unusual timepieces of excellent quality in limited quantity since 1888.
POLYCARBONATE
Polycarbonate is often compared to perspex (acrylic) because of its appearance, but polycarbonate is a much tougher plastic product altogether. It is lightweight, yet provides high impact/shock load protection. Its desirable durability can make it survive, for instance, from the huge stress of a wrist when playing tennis. (Trivia: And that is the reason why Rafael Nadal chooses to wear a polycarbonate watch, the Richard Mille RM027 Rafael Nadal Watch, in his tennis matches.)
In abrasion resistant grade and in tints, polycarbonate makes a great choice for windows where additional safely is required, including in race cars, earthmoving equipment and horse floats.
