AISION: UFO Inspired Automatic Watches from Hong Kong
Hong Kong based AISION DESIGN presents an automatic watch inspired by the UFOs.
Featuring a stainless steel case with a symmetrical and balance design, the watch looks like a UFO. The case has a diameter of 45mm and it is topped with a domed sapphire crystal glass. The multi-level case structure of this watch employs varying surface finishing methods like sand-blasting, round-polishing, mirror polishing and linear brushing.
The major design highlight of the watch is its stunning stereoscopic dial which gives it a futuristic appeal. The metal skeleton structure of the dial is inspired by the streamline of the wheel.
Two models are available: AN-S04 and AN-S03. The AN-S03 model features a disc based time display system on the dial with the hour, minutes and seconds discs. The AN-S04 model features a traditional three-hand display. The generous application of BGW9 Super-Luminova on the hour-marker digits and hands provide excellent night time readability.
To get a perfect UFO style, the watch deploys its crown at12H position. The crown placed at the middle of the bezel and case. The watch also features a lume O ring on the bezel.

It has a vibration Frequency of 28800 per hour and provides a power reserve up to 42 hours. This super-slim premium automatic movement can be admired through the sapphire crystal case-back.
