1969 HISTORY 1969 changed everything. It was the year the world’s first Quartz watch was released – and this new type of movement changed the watch industry completely. This movement rewrote horologic history with its remarkable accuracy, smaller size, while at the same time making wristwatches affordable. Our first unisex collection is designed around such Quartz movement, together with vintage details in form of a slightly curved dial and a super-domed glass. Combining this with a ‘humble’ dream of creating yet another historical impact, we named this timepiece 1969 Vintage.
