Rugged and ready. Gen 1 Watch Bracelet has been through some wear and tear, and is now ready to do it again, with you. Sharing a watch mechanism crafted from vintage, obsolete Soviet-Union movements, and a parachute cord, each bracelet is tightened with a bead, and details in the central “a 1960’s Russian mechanism, embedded with ’16 камни’ (16 rubies). These are bearing points originally embedded by the watchmaker to reduce friction on moving parts. “GENEVA STRIPES” – notice the striped lines of polishing running vertically across the watch. A decorative technique that is commonly used for enhancing aesthetics.
