Wristcheck design competition is over, that's the RO I've imagined
Actually there are two.
I did not win but I wanted to share with you feedbacks and comments.
Other purists should have forwarded their ideas, I'd be glad if they could share as well.
It took me photoshop and few weekends to copy/paste/draw (mostly), I'm not yet that skilled to draw the whole dial design, thus have mercy!
p.s. I've started playing with Reverso, I love the watch but the font is toooo old IMHO 😎
👏 interesting concept ROs
The black would be a safer bet for AP; very nice indeed for sure
Thanks, great post 👊
Let me explain
what's behind these ideas: I've owned several RO in the last 20 years and I truly love what Genta has created.
The design IS a masterpiece.
Full stop.
You can't add anything, proportions are perfectly balanced.
That's why I chose to design a digital calendar and a time only.
Readability is usually an issue with annual/perpetual calendars, that's why I have put every informations in what I believe is the right sequence, at least IMHO.
The time only is nothing more than the octagonal case with no crown, which is hidden into the case itself.
No tapisserie, no indexes, no big fonts, just pure shape.
How is the crown in the case? Do you mean like a rotating ring below the bezel?
Both are great designs. It would be nice to see what others here submitted.
Nothing too complicated
I've been thinking to some Seiko models, but with a genius like Giulio Papi any solution is likely feasible.
JLC already made it 😎

I really like the first one!!
reminds me of that perpetual calender that debethune released a while back!
Exactly.
That's my source of inspiration 😎
I think that the hour's indication should come before the calendar

The first is amazing.
But I suppose it cost a lot of money to achieve the dial layout so maybe AP will not accept it.
Very cool concepts!
I'd say you were a strong contender and you definitely thought outside of the box!
