In Swedish, Strömma means “flow”. And while you’re reading time around the Strömma watch, it will seem like it’s flowing! The Strömma watch takes inspiration from mechanical switch us dot displays. Rather of the usual hour and minute hands duo, Strömma continues to be amped by having an intriguing alternative. This interesting watch has a number of flipping plates are utilized to signify the passing minutes! The hour hands was retained, however, with no support of the pivot, it appears as though it’s floating in the heart of the dial.
Because the hour hands moves along, the plates switch to represent every minute that passes. The undersides from the plates come in a number of colors for example blue, yellow, white-colored, and much more based on your choice! However, when an hour or so is finished, all of the plates switch over simultaneously, reminding you of the cascading waterfall! The plates resume their matte black display and also the phenomenon begins once again, with every plate flipping one at a time in compliance using the minutes passing.
The interesting watch also has the contrasting colored segments take me to Math class in class, reminding me from the cake charts I needed to tackle begrudgingly. Though an idea, the Strömma watch is a very intriguing and merges advanced and traditional design. Having a floating hands and colorful flipping plates, this isn’t a timepiece you encounter every single day!
