anOrdain x Windup Watch Shop – The Model 1 Precious Metal Series
Jul 28, 2021

Presenting a brand new iteration of our seminal watch - the Model 1 Precious Metal Series. In collaboration with Windup Watch Shop, an online watch boutique founded by Worn & Wound, the dials of the Model 1 Precious Metal Series offer the more subtle design features of our first watch space to breathe upon the dial.
When the first lockdown of 2020 hit, enamel production at anOrdain halted for the first time in two years.
Making a watch without enamel wasn’t something we’d done before but, unwilling to stop creating, we began racking our brains about how best to proceed.
With a team comprising of typographers, silversmiths, jewellers, watchmakers and people from an array of design principles, we knew we would be able to explore other creative avenues.
The idea of creating a watch using precious metal had always appealed to us. But, due to the ever-increasing demand for our enamel watches, we had simply never found the time. The pause in production afforded us the perfect opportunity.
