@lepee_1839 x @alexmoss Grenade is not just any ordinary timepiece; It is an artistic object that dares us to embrace the present moment and seize life’s opportunities.
Drawing inspiration from diverse art forms, from contemporary art to street art, this exclusive collaborative collection shatters conventions by seamlessly fusing the realms of horology and jewelry craftsmanship.
Grenade features a pin that doubles as the key, which when pulled allows for setting the time and winding the eight-day movement. The moment you pull the pin on a grenade the mind is focused: the grenade is live, and you must concentrate on the here and now to live.
The clock forces the mind to focus on the moment you are in and the task of winding and setting the time, reminding you that you are only guaranteed this very moment, as Time is precious so don’t waste it.
The hours and minutes are displayed on two black aluminium disks rotating directly over the beating heart of Grenade. Ticking away at a traditional 18,000 vibrations per hour, the balance wheel is front and centered, audibly reminding us that time is slipping away, and we never know how much time we have left. Once you wind Grenade and set its time display, the next step is to seize the day.
