In the grand timeline of horologic history, the second was a late, yet significant arrival. Original pocket watches merely featured hour hands, owing to the extent of inaccuracy in movements that made even minute hands seem impractical. However, the mid-17th century witnessed game-changing inventions from the brilliant mind of Dutch scientist and horologist, Christiaan Huygens.
In 1656, Huygens launched the pendulum for clocks, a revolutionary development that escalated precision from a half-hour or more per day to a matter of seconds.

Ferragamo, the venerated Italian fashion house, challenged preconceptions and expectations with their timepiece. Known primarily for fashion, this brand evoked scepticism and high-rolling eyes upon the announcement of their venture into timepieces. However, the Ferragamo Asymetrique watch managed to turn heads, offering a blend of fashion-forward aesthetics and more time-honoured watch subtleties.
Often, fashion watches are criticised for their over-design, ambient branding, and derivativeness. Though Ferragamo does have a few models that do adhere to these stereotypes, the Asymetrique is a notable difference. Taking a page from the Cartier Tank, the Asymetrique presents a distinct yet restrained dress watch tendering its own unique tweaks.
