ELKA S Series: The Essence of Simplicity
Limited Edition of 100 pieces; numbered - on pre-order only - delivery Mid December The black and white aesthetic of photography is a timeless art form, a dance between light and shadow that captures the essence of a moment without the distraction of color. It’s this very spirit that inspires our two exclusive timepieces. One watch is a complete immersion into the depths of shadow, a whole black edition with a matching dial and bracelet. It's a tribute to the deep blacks and dramatic contrasts found in classic photography—a bold, confident statement that embodies sophistication and timeless style. The other is its perfect counterpart, a study in light. This whole white edition, with a pristine dial and bracelet, celebrates the soft whites and subtle gradients of a perfectly exposed photograph. It represents clarity, simplicity, and the pure, unadulterated beauty of design. Both timepieces are a homage to the art of black and white photography and the iconic aesthetics of the 60s and 70s. They are not just watches; they are wearable art, each a limited edition masterpiece designed for those who appreciate the enduring power of a monochrome palette.
Elka Watch is unveiling two timepieces, each produced in a limited series of 25. Inspired by deep shades of green and burgundy, these new creations follow in the footsteps of the young brand's iconic models, such as the blue ‘Essence’ created in collaboration with Ace Jewelers and the amber-coloured ‘Loch Lãt’. A return to the roots of watchmaking, where timeless elegance meets exclusivity. These uncluttered timepieces, stripped of all superfluous elements, are an invitation to pure and simple contemplation of the passing of time. These are unique timepieces for watch lovers in search of authenticity. For Hakim El Kadiri, a watch is a piece of jewellery that represents you, that must travel through time and not appear obsolete even 50 years from now. An automatic watch should be able to function for years if you take care, and the design must also be able to stand the test of time. That's what these models are all about. These two new timepieces have sunbrushed dials, with colours ranging from light to dark green, or from light to dark burgundy. These colours are very playful with the light that surrounds us, and the sapphire ‘box’ offers even more ‘deformations’ that make these watches unique in every way. Beneath their aesthetic purity, Elka watches hide an efficient, modern heart: the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement. With a power reserve of 68 hours and flawless precision.
After exploring different digital scripts with the 2023 Diversity Series, Ace Jewelers and Elka Watch return with the D-Series Essence. The dial of this limited edition is devoid of any markings - with the exception of the Elka wordmark - reducing the concept of a wristwatch to its simplest expression while highlighting the clean lines of the case and the spectacular dome of the glass. The result? The imposing presence of the deep blue dial and stainless steel case steal the show, orchestrating a grandiose performance that harmoniously combines intrinsic tranquillity and hypnotic allure.
Elka Watch has created a limited edition of 25 watches. Each watch is numbered and could be paired with a unique bottle of Loch Lat whisky (offer only available in Switzerland). The watch features an amber-colored dial reminiscent of whisky, a brown leather strap, and a Joux Perret G100 movement.
