on the occasion of celebrating the 10th anniversary of the issey miyake watch project, in development with seiko instruments,
japanese designer tokujin yoshioka has created 'O'.
in french, eau (pronounced 'O'), means water.
tokujin has created this timepiece making it look as if it is sculpted from water, a block of ice,
resulting in a transparent bangle with a smooth curvature, that reflects its surroundings. the design,
with its non-definitive liquid form like water, seems to blend into the environment, as if it were disappearing from itself.
the watch is set to be released at the beginning of july.
