Extra Normal Turntable Watch - Gold Case / Gold Hands / White Genuine Calfskin Leather Strap

Time – it records our past, present, and future, and it waits for no one. "What time is it?" This is a common question for busy modern individuals. Normal Timepieces, a renowned Japanese watch brand, extends the act of "telling time" into a realm of aesthetic creativity and design. Their "Extra Normal Turntable Watch" features a watch face where the movement of hour and minute hands is not readily apparent, transforming the timepiece into a beautiful work of decorative art. Unlike conventional watches that display numbers from one to twelve, the "Extra Normal Turntable Watch" design focuses solely on the "current time." Whether it's seven in the morning or midnight, the entire day is concealed beneath a black and white turntable, with only the present number revealed. This signifies an emphasis on the present moment. At first glance, the Extra Normal Grande is an elegant, minimalist timepiece. However, the details are not so simple. As time passes, elusive numbers emerge and recede from view, creating a subtle effect. The hour hand is, in fact, the rotating disk that forms the dial. This disk has a window through which the numbers on the dial below are displayed within its hour. Designer Ross McBride imbues his creations with his personal philosophy. The clock is like a turntable, and the second hand is like a record needle, sweeping clockwise across each track with a regular, steady rhythm. Life isn't static; instead, it's about steadily creating a beautiful life melody each day. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Normal watches are deeply rooted in the history of electronic timekeeping. Over the years, we have dedicated ourselves to refining electronic watches, aiming to bring them into the modern aesthetic watch market. This watch series forms the foundation of the Normal brand. It is also one of our earliest and most iconic designs. A concept of understated minimalism and genuine materials forms the basis of our approach to life's aesthetics. ▎**Product Specifications** Movement: Miyota 2035 Battery: SR626SW (3-year lifespan) Dimensions: Ø38x 8mm / Ø1.26 inches x 0.374 inches Case: 316 Stainless Steel Crystal: Mineral Crystal Strap: Premium Calfskin Leather Weight: 50g / 1.23oz.
