There are men who can wear a Xeric watch and men who probably shouldn’t. Because it will invite questions from nearly everyone who sees it, and you’re either comfortable talking about nerdy mechanical automatic watch movements or you aren’t.
The Xeriscope Squared Automatic gunmetal watch is a functional, wearable work of art, number 194 out of only 300 made. I’ll let the designers describe it:
Features
A beating mechanical heart, the mainspring of the watch pumps life into this complex time machine. Seeing the action of the living machine on your wrist gives a thrill no electronic gadget can. Another rarity in timekeeping, the Xeriscope Squared's double-sided minute hand with two-tier arc of digits.
The Xeriscope Squared deconstructs typical watch functionality with easy to read originality. Wearing and winding this timepiece generates energy seen in this power reserve meter. Much like the gas tank of your car. Need to know what time it is at home when traveling or if it's too late to call where your better half is, no problem, the second time zone can be set to any other location on the planet.
The rotor (oscillating mass) that generates the power supply to the movement, seen from the porthole caseback viewing crystal.
A design perfected with focus on style and legibility. There's nothing quite like a mechanical watch. The many parts of a machine all working in unison completely viewable from the front is a rare sight these days.
Specifications
This watch has been worn, but not much. The only real visible signs of use is the natural wrinkles in the leather strap. Xeric offers a new strap for $60, if you desire that factory-fresh look.
