CW&T - Solid State Watch

Received my CW&T Solid State watch (one of ten from their latest batch drop) and I’m transfixed, intrigued, and in love:

Solid State Watch is a Casio F-91W movement permanently cast into a transparent resin case. It's in there forever. No buttons, no functions, no light, fully waterproof and no changing that 10 year battery.

...

We’re casting each and every Solid State Watches in our Brooklyn Studio. The process involves a series of steps, beginning with a 3D print of the main body printed on a Form 3 printer. Then we cast, heat, vacuum and UV cure a movement set to your timezone into the body. This casting process is done in multiple steps to achieve our desired finish. All of these steps are done by hand, and we embrace the slight imperfections of the process that make each watch unique.

Already decided that this one is going to become my everyday watch – at least until the next time change, upon which my Dick Tracy yellow GShock will assume the mantel (unless I decide I need two Solid States); either way, I will remain hypnotized by the shifting globule of resin encased within. Head over to CW&T’s site to learn more about the Solid State Watch and its creation and to check out more of the wonderful things Chei-Wei and Taylor are building - like the “where were you all my life?” Superlocal.
