BOUND design michela benaglia + domenico orefice by michela benaglia from italy
designer's own words:
Innovative and unexpected design for a new concept of watch: it is a jewel too!
Bound is designed in different tonalities, with or without zirconia inserts, both for men and women. The dial is pure and elegant: no graphics on it, except for the logo "Breil".
The top glass is fixed with four staples of the external ring that simultaneously mark the key points of the quadrant. This is a link to the classic diamond griff mounting, referring to the jewelry's world.
Bound is not just a clock: it is a true jewel. The greater innovation is in the watchstrap, which is made of a single flexible metal chainlet rolled around the wrist.
Due to that, you can wear Bound in different ways.
The men's one, biggest and with the watchstrap that roll-up just once around the wrist, becomes a pocket-watch, revisiting a Classic in a contemporary way.
The women's model is smaller and with a long watchstrap so that you can turn it over and over around the wrist: from bracelet to a necklace and again to a bracelet...
TIME TO WEAR…. Bound by Breil.
