Defakto Akkord Black Dial Automatic Watch

Defakto Akkord Standard

The minimalist design watch Defakto Akkord is a striking, slightly brutalist aesthetic statement offering excellent readability. It comes in two varieties, one with a steel central case and one with black PVD coating. The semi-coarse brushing of the 42 mm watchcase middle piece gives the watch a subtle texture, while the contrasting materials play off the stark dial for a modern and sophisticated look. The accurate Swiss-made automatic movement ETA 2824 drives the skeletonized hour hand, whose inner width perfectly matches the index-sized minute hand, providing a unified geometric stripe as the hands eclipse each other. The interplay of the clearly arranged indexes of the dial and the interacting hands sets a contemporary note and provides high readability. The tension between the size of the markers and the negative space in between, the rhythm of the forms and their interaction with the uniquely shaped hands make up the minimalist character of the watch. The strict proportions and clean lines of the dial and hands aid in an accurate telling of time. Pure and timeless, the Defakto Akkord is a versatile watch that invites wearing on a daily basis.
