The Sixties, Reinterpreted
Some designs don't need to be reinvented. They simply need to be seen from a new perspective.
The Alexander Shorokhoff Sixtythree looks back to the elegant, ultra-thin watches that helped define the 1960s, then gives that familiar silhouette a distinctly Shorokhoff interpretation.
Its deep black dial curves gently beneath a cylindrical sapphire crystal, creating a sense of depth that becomes more noticeable as the watch moves on the wrist. Rose-gold-plated hands and the sculpted 20, 40 and 60 markers introduce warmth against the dark surface, while the remaining details are kept deliberately restrained.
The simplicity is deceptive. Those raised numerals have to follow the curvature of the dial — a small detail that reveals the precision behind an otherwise effortless-looking design.
At 40mm, the brushed and polished stainless-steel case brings vintage inspiration into contemporary proportions. The curved crystal also plays with perception, giving the watch greater presence without making the case itself oversized.
Turn it over and the story continues.
Visible through the sapphire caseback is the Swiss ETA 2892 / Sellita SW300 automatic movement, personalised in true Alexander Shorokhoff fashion with a hand-engraved and refined oscillating weight and blued screws.
The Sixtythree isn't a recreation of a vintage watch.
It's a memory of an era, interpreted through modern watchmaking — elegant, slightly unconventional and full of details that reveal themselves slowly.
A little of the sixties, made for today.
