At the beginning of December Swiss watch manufacturer FORTIS will launch a most unusual Chronograph. This timekeeper is not only an object that shows the time, it more likely gives a very emotional suggestion of how to spend your time meaningful.
Or as the artist Andora says “LIVE YOUR TIME AND DETERMINE THE CONTENT”
This artist Chronograph has a very complex dial design with a rotating “globe” as a permanent small second, a bezel with five colours and fine engravings on the bracelet and the case back make it to a one of a kind watch with high collectors’ value. The artist Andora is maybe only known by a smaller circle of art enthusiasts, but in over 30 years of his artistic activity he has made some amazing art.
