NOVA Automatic 44 mm from BOTTA
The NOVA Automatic features a display comprising two elements: a scale divided into twelve segments and an hour hand. It intentionally dispenses with any further subdivisions. While the hour hand inches its way across the dial, at a speed not perceptible to the human eye, it uses the twelve segments one by one to give a graphic indication of the current hour.
Focusing on periods of time – not specific points in time
Like an hourglass, the NOVA Automatic from BOTTA design presents the passing of a defined period of time – in this case one hour – rather than the many small intervals that happen in the meantime.
