A Fine Balance of Inception

“I have no name!” 

Nobody is Nemo, Nemo is Nobody.

But he shall build the Nautilus and sail the seven seas with a crew of devoted followers

The Jules Verne  universe has been the source of inspiration and imagination for the brand’s first two collections. The latest from us is no exception. Captain Nemo is a character created by the French novelist. He appears in two of Verne's science-fiction books, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas (1870) and The Mysterious Island (1875)

Nemo is the sequel of Horizon Watches’ first collection, the -N-. Where its brethren stood tall and dominant on the wrist, Nemo is the opposite: it is smaller and thinner. That said, Nemo retains the traits that have fast become synonymous with Horizon Watches.

Integrated Date Display

One of the most-often mentioned unique feature of Horizon Watches is the ingenious way the brand has integrated the date window with the rest of the indices/markers, creating an almost perfect balance visually on the dial. 

With input from the Horizon Watches community, the term “Integrated Date Display” or IDD was coined. As much as possible, IDD will be incorporated in every Horizon collection in the future. 

For a standardized look, the date disc has also been customized to match the colour of the rest of the markers. 

Indices on a Dial

The applied markers of Nemo dial are tall, really tall, at 0.6 mm in height. This unique design not only showcases the beauty of each marker but also reinforces the Nautilus (the sea creature) - inspired design for the numbers. 

The Nooks and Crannies

With the Nemo you will get a sense of multi-plane and multi-level surfaces. This is accentuated by the two-module case construction, which is a rarity. With this unique method of construction, perfect finishing even at the nooks and crannies is made possible. Coupled with various heights and slopes, beautifully finished stepped lugs are also visible.

Bezel of a Diver

The Nemo is equipped with a coin-edged unidirectional external rotating bezel that comes with a sapphire insert – an upgrade from first collections - to measure time elapsed. The bezel has 120 clicks for a firmer rotation.

Crown of a Diver

The Nemo’s screwdown crown protected by a crown guard with coin-edged design is 7.5mm in diameter, making it easy to handle and wind as needed. The signature indentation is also visible on the side.

MicroSliders

A butterfly clasp with micro adjustment system on both sides of the bracelets. We might be wrong but we have not seen anything like this before. Butterfly clasp is a preferred choice for this integrated style bracelets as it minimizes the bulge and large dimension often seen on a standard deployant clasp but it is also constraining as micro adjustment was not an option, till now, with the MicroSliders, as we call it. 

It is a simple concept of incorporating an additional link at the end of each side of the bracelet that can be adjusted in either half or full length by way of pressing and sliding a spring-loaded bar that is attached to that last link. It can even be done on the fly for added convenience.

 

About Horizon Watches

Horizon Watches is the realisation of watch designer, Fred Bekher’s longtime dream of having his own watch brand. Established in 2021, Horizon Watches’ designs draw inspiration from legends and adventures of the past with a strong eye for design detail. Horizon Watches’ first collection – the Nautilus – is a series of dive watches inspired by Jules Verne’s classic, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. The Nautilus and future collections are dreamed up of and made into reality out of Bekher’s home base in Kherson, Ukraine.
