OttantaSei Blue – from sketch to reality

Designing and manufacturing a skeleton 10-day tourbillon like the OttantaSei is similar to building a sports car like Pininfarina does it. Until it's not. It is a matter of scale. Designing a high end timepiece like the OttantaSei, and making it all blue requires focusing on the smallest things, screws less than 1 mm wide. Desigining a prototype for a sportscar, like Pininfarina does, requires focusing on the smallest things, which are not 1 mm wide. Both inspire the same amount of awe and passion. The OttantaSei strikes the right texture, the right angle, the perfect balance between void and matter, thanks to the many skills of its craftsmen and -women. The blue titanium OttantaSei is a work of both design and watchmaking art.
