Design sketches of an integrated-bracelet watch with acanthus engraving and fleur-de-lis details — ACTE.5

Revive Automatic

Project 01 / 08

REVIVE is conceived as a sculptural masterpiece, where watchmaking and jewellery craftsmanship merge.

Powered by the Miyota 8N40 automatic movement, the entire case and bracelet are wrapped in deep 3D acanthus engravings, transforming steel into an expressive ornamental surface. The smoked gradient dial partially reveals the mechanics beneath.
