ROADSTER 9021
A project that brought not just our passion for the past and the present in watchmaking, but of automobiles as well.
The Roadster 9021 is inspired by the vintage outlook of the racing cars designed in the 1960s. The sleek outlook of the sandblasted casing matched with a sandblasted finished handcrafted watch dial; the watch has a retro feel to it. The power reserve marker of the rare Japanese Epson automatic movement is made to look like the fuel marker of the automobile. The circular watch hands used are extremely difficult to assemble and therefore all Roadsters are only assembled by 1 single Master Watchmaker at a time. Matched with a vintage looking matte finished leather strap with a handy quick release mechanism, the entire watch gives off the strong vibe from the 60s. Finished with a sapphire glass surface, this beast is built to last. This limited edition watch only has 500 pieces produced for sales worldwide and comes in a unique wooden packaging and a limited-edition card.

THE DESIGN
________________________________
Finished with applied polished and brushed indexes hand assembled onto the periphery of the dial, that enjoys a circular brushing against the sandblasting along the center. Hand assembled and individually numbered. Paired with design cues such as the fuel-gauge-esque power reserve indicator at 12 and the tyre-rim style escapement cage at 9 brings the design to a full circle.
THE CASE
________________________________
The sandblasted case and textured dial offer a level of fit and finish that is reminiscent of the performance of the racers of old.
THE STRAP
________________________________
Premium hand stitched leather strap with quick release system.
THE MOVEMENT

A racer of such pedigree deserves an engine of equal performance, and that same philosophy backs the Roadster. Powered by an Epson Corp YN84A offering the time, 24-hour indicator and the power reserve, it offers the performance and features to match the avant-garde design of the timepiece.
