A unique horological experiment that features Bronze not only as a case material, but as an instrument of intrigue and introspection on the subject of life, death and rebirth. No two bronze pieces patina the same, the end result being contingent on the material’s interaction with its environment in which it is immersed, the natural or anthropic processes it goes through over the passage of time. The patina varies widely giving unique characteristics that enhance the beauty of the product much like the effects of different adversities in life has on different individuals.
