If you’re a music lover and want to make a bold statement with your accessories, look no further than the new Technics-inspired wristwatch by designer Yu Ando. This unique timepiece takes inspiration from the iconic Technics SL-1200 turntable, a favorite among DJs since the late 1970s.
The watch features a mini turntable design on the dial, powered by an ultra-thin Miyota 9039 movement with a 42-hour power reserve. True to its inspiration, the dial eschews traditional numbers in favor of markings around the case to display hours, minutes, and seconds. This watch is definitely not your average smartwatch.
The minute hand is cleverly shaped like a pickup arm, while the hour hand is indicated by a spinning disc labeled with an “A” to mark the current hour. The seconds hand is read when the text is horizontal, signaling the start of a new minute.
According to the official site, this watch is more than just a time-telling device – it’s a statement piece that showcases your love for music and sophistication. The watch is available for pre-order in three color combinations: red, black, and silver; black, gold, and black; and a limited edition all gold version. The standard models are priced at £340, while the limited edition gold version costs £353 (currently sold out). Deliveries are expected to begin in April 2025.
If you want to add a touch of musical flair to your wrist, this Technics-inspired watch is the perfect choice. Show off your love for music and style with this unique timepiece.
