Twissic is a new watch brand that takes pride in offering some of the world’s thinnest and lightest watches. With a classic design and interchangeable straps made from full grain leather sourced from a renowned Italian tannery, the label is a great new competitor on the market in its price range.
The London-based brand was funded through Kickstarter and enjoys a lot of attention from people from all around the world.
We got the chance to try out one of their watches and here are the conclusions of what we like about them:
Design. The watches proposed by Twissic have a simple and minimal design. While sometimes in the business this can be detrimental, it can also be a great plus point, as a simple watch is great both for everyday wear as well as for an office environment and goes with pretty much any type of outfit. Moreover, the fact that it has a clean design and doesn’t have a date feature means that you don’t have to worry about it being set wrong.
Versatility. Twissic watches feature colors and finishes that are rather neutral in nature, which makes them highly versatile. In fashion, colors such as brown, beige, white, black, khaki, ivory, etc. are considered neutral and can be matched to any other color. Metallics are also neutrals, which means that you can wear gold and silver with anything (including with each other). Basically, what this means is that a Twissic watch is most likely to look good on any outfit and will be a good match to any other accessories you might wear.
Durability. Despite its thickness of only about 4.8 mm, the Twissic watches have a Swiss movement that has a battery life of 6 years, which is quite impressive. It’s a great watch for those who want not to have to worry about setting the watch.
Travel-friendly. Because Twissic watches are so light and thin, they are great to take with you on a trip. If you pack up one watch and, say, 3-4 straps, you will add a lot of style to your bags without adding a lot of weight.
Price. Last, but certainly not least, the price point for Twissic watches is a very good one, as the watches cost a little over £200 (about €225 or $250), which makes them rather affordable and well-priced. Separate straps come at £45 (about €51 or $57).
A Twissic watch can be a great addition to anyone’s wardrobe and they also make for great gifts for both men and women. They strike a great balance between a minimal design and a stylish accessory and, above all, are extremely comfortable and light, which makes them a great accessory to have.
