Written by coream at 5/24/2009 08:16:00 PM This fantastic new French watch from Alain Silberstein has been made to be exclusively sold at the Parisian boutique store Colette located on the famous Rue St. Honoré... Alain Silberstein, a designer who makes quintessentially French watches has developed the iKrono Blue Ring watch for the "concept design" store.... Alain Silberstein watches almost always feature the iconic blue, red, and yellow color scheme with corresponding square, triangle, and circle shapes... You can tell how fluidly that has been incorporated here... The watch case is unique for featuring a square base with a round case and "lefty" oriented pushers and crown...

The namesake of the watch, Blue Ring comes from quite simply that - the lovely toned blue ring with the tachymetric scale around the dial of the watch... The movement appears to be an ETA Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph with a curious substitution for the day of the week indicator... Next to the date you'll see a little window with a smiling face... Either each day of the week will have it's own face, or more appropriately, the weekends will have a smiling face, while the week days will have some manner of serious face...
