KLOK-01 by klokers
Machines to Travel through Time
Come back with us through time, anytime
from the 1970s all the way back to the 17th century, when slide rules
really did rule. Before the advent of cheap pocket calculators, slide
rules were the fastest method for working out complex calculations.
klokers pays homage to this iconic, form-follows-function instrument
with the brand's first watch, the KLOK-01, featuring three rotating
disks displaying time along a vertical line and a patented
interchangeable bracelet system.

watches are highly evocative, triggering memories and personal stories
from iconic objects of our past. They are like time shuttles for the
wrist, reviving timeless style elements and channeling them into fresh,
contemporary, playful timepieces respecting the origins of their
inspiration.
The KLOK-01 display is a graphical representation of a slide rule using
three rotating concentric rings to display the time along a vertical red
line. The rings - one each for hours, minutes, and seconds - rotate at
different speeds, making the whole dial a symphony of motion.
An integrated magnifying lens in the crystal ensures high legibility
when reading the time. The 44 mm case is fabricated from a modern
composite of stainless steel and polymers for maximum strength and
comfort.

watches easily, and securely, clip on and off a patented docking "Key"
on the bracelet, allowing for interchangeability of watches and
bracelets to suit the owner's mood and fashion.
The bracelet (KLOK-00) is also designed to be worn by itself.
KLOK-01 is more than a watch: both the timepiece and bracelet are stylish, stand-alone fashion accessories.
