Wrist Watch, Stainless Steel, Black, 1½ in.

Alessi Men's AL28003 L'OROLOGIO Stainless Steel Automatic Wrist Watch with Black Metal Strap. With a single stroke of a pen "l'orologio" fuses all the components into a simple and elegant bidimensional frame, capturing the very essence of the classic wrist watch design. The glass resting on top of the thin frame reveals the big dial that lies well below the surface. This creates an unexpected dimension to the thin frame, a metaphor for the extra dimension time adds to the world surrounding us. "l'orologio" is a classic passepartout: clean, timeless and easy to read. (Frédéric Gooris)
