The Story Behind the Art
Eduardo Milieris, designer and founder of Watchcraft, was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. Now based in New York City Milieris cites his long time influences as Calder, Pollock, Miro, Kandinsky, and the circular stories of Jorge Luis Borges. Immediately upon returning home after the exhibit, Eduardo set to work painting the face of his first watch. To mark his passage into adulthood, Eduardo's grandfather asked him to choose a special watch for himself. He searched for the perfect timepiece that was uniquely his own. That experience guided the decisions he has made about the watches in his Watchcraft line. The decision not to seal the distressed and oxidized metal with a protective finish allows the wearer of the watch to become a participant in the evolution of the piece. The air, the temperature, and the skin of the wearer all change the inherent molecular structure of the metal, and the end result is a watch that is most uniquely their own.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.
