Numberless watches might seem a bit off considering that the concept of time itself is based off of numbers, but what you'll find from this collection of minimalist designs is that you shan't miss the digits when wearing one of the designs. Making use of simplistic markings, digital portions or words, the designs push in a new direction of minimalism to create something that's more of a work of art rather than a functional way to track time.
Many of the designs here boast monochromatic styles to complement the numberless faces, but there are a handful that are crafted with more organic color schemes including gold and brown to give something of an old world flair to the stark pieces. Which is your fave?
