Time Takes a Surreal Turn
PRESS RELEASE | 350 WORDS | 3 MIN READ
4th March, 2025: Exaequo's Melting Watch, a timepiece already celebrated for its surrealist inspiration, has unveiled a captivating new chapter, blending the dreamlike with a touch of rugged vintage. The iconic "melted" watches, known for their fluidity and subjective interpretation of time, now feature "aging jeans" straps, creating a fascinating juxtaposition of permanence and transformation.
Surrealism Meets Sporty Vintage
Imagine a watch case, crafted from immutable materials, preserving its classic form through time. Now, picture it paired with a strap that evolves, ages, and changes with every wear. This is the essence of Exaequo's latest offering – a surrealist dialogue between two opposing forces. The "aging jeans" strap, designed to develop a distressed, vintage look over time, adds a sporty edge to the already intriguing timepiece.
A Fresh Dial and Timeless Design
A new white dial, featuring striking blue hands and Roman numerals, is introduced in both 316L stainless steel and yellow gold PVD-treated versions. This update breathes new life into the watches that have revived the surrealist manifesto and the concept of fluid, dreamlike time.
The signature irregular oval case, with its "ultra-soft" appearance, remains unchanged. This distinctive case, compressed in the center and elegantly tapered, measures approximately 47mm in length and 28mm at its widest point, retaining the rounded crown for time adjustment.
The "Aging Jeans" Strap
The "aging jeans" strap is the star of this update. This durable fabric, specifically designed with a "distressed" character, evolves with use, giving the watch a unique look every day. It's a living canvas, reflecting the wearer's journey through time. This strap is compatible with all Exaequo Melting Watch models and can also be purchased separately.
Unchanged Excellence
Everything else about the Melting Watch remains unchanged. The domed plexiglass crystal, the customizable case back secured with four screws ensuring 30 meters of water resistance, and the reliable Ronda 751 electro-mechanical movement all contribute to the watch's enduring appeal.
Embrace Uniqueness
Exaequo's Melting Watch, with its new "aging jeans" strap, invites wearers to embrace uniqueness. It's a timepiece that tells a story, a blend of surrealist inspiration and vintage charm, designed to be worn daily with a lived-in look that evolves with time and wear. The fascination of surrealist culture lives on, now enriched by its encounter with vintage culture. It’s a timeless and iconic style.
