Telegraph Watch

Telegraph Watch

The Telegraph is inspired by early 20th Century pocket watches used by Morse Code operators. As a way to communicate time quickly, they used these watches as a key to tap out the time as a single letter, starting from 'A' as 1am to 'Z' at midnight. 

AM times are printed in red around the outer ring with PM in blue - the watch uses blue hands for increased legibility against the cream-colored face. Finally, it is finished with linear brushing on the sides, radial brushing on the back, and mirror polishing on the bezel.
