Nu

Nu is a water-filled watch. Designers filled the watch dial with water from some of the world's most polluted bodies of water, intending to attract people's attention to the problem. The design took inspiration from the morning dew; Like a water droplet on top of a leaf, the watch sits on top of the strap, and the body shape follows the droplet's contour. The pristine ocean was the inspiration for the blue colour.
