A watch profoundly inspired by Georges Méliès and his universe, from the Earth to the Moon, from Dream to Adventure. A modern adaptation that is the very image of your Times.
“Voyage dans la Lune”1, a Moon fantasy rediscovered by SLYDE!
OPTIKA is a peerless transposition of the photographic and cinema techniques of yesteryear, thanks to its dynamic screens of unrivalled realism. An homage to Méliès, a faithful reconstitution of the visuals and know-how of adventurers from a time long gone.
A multifunction timepiece, of remarkable digital precision, composed of dynamic screens, an exhilarating rendition of timekeeping pleasure, at once sensual and daring !
OPTIKA, a salute to those who wrote the History of the Image
Conceived by bold, visionary watchmaker-designer Fabrice Gonet, the OPTIKA is the embodiment of the fundamentals of traditional watchmaking in a retro-digital piece that is at once revolutionary, luxurious and…digital!
Just like the countdown to the start of a 1920s’ film, the OPTIKA carries you right into the Present. Thanks to SLYDE, you don’t follow a timeline, you create your own … just like Méliès.
With echoes of the 1929 ROLLEIFLEX designed by Franke & Heidecke, the watch has a vintage look with an unusual design that forges further links to the people who wrote the History of the Image and of its capture.
