Analog Watch of Wonderful Halfness
So you like to call yourself a wristwatch connoisseur, eh? You feel like you’ve seen it all, you hang out on Yanko Design all the time, you know every watch from concept to reality, everything from digital to ethereal, you’ve set your eyeballs on everything! Well wait a second, did you say you’ve dismissed analog watches? Let me change your mind real quick. This is KOKO MUO, a watch in either all silver or black and silver, a simplistic watch that’s got greatness going on in it with only half a face.
Experience the power of negative space. It’s a common misconception that a graphic design is one who fills up all the space he or she is given, that being the greatest use of the entire canvas. Nay, I say nay, this is the job of the graphic designer: to utilize the space in a way that gives magical powers to the bits he or she has to place upon it. That’s what the industrial designer has done here, in this watch. Well played, Löytö Esineiden, well played.
Designer: Löytö Esineiden

Would be more impressed if the other half of the watch face was not there, otherwise get the feeling the clock that completes the circle is still there.

do you have the designer name correct? Löytö Esineiden is Finnish and means 'of found objects', yet it doesn't really make sense in Finnish.

This is… not very good.
It's a beautiful watch concept, but the other half of the face is wasted space. I could be behind it if it was a crescent face, but half a circle ON a whole circle with blank space is just bad design.

Not bad to see this watch!

I think that in design is not necessary to occupy all the space that you have. Creative, clean design and wonderful concept. Congrats!

“Löytö Esineiden” is I believe a small group of designers. They use finnish words to name their designs, also.
I’m not quite sure if any of them are from Finland, at least like u said words don’t make that musch sense, but surely they can use translate.google.com
