Official description
The 8-Track Watch is a fusion of ideas, passions, mechanics and two independent watch brands: a watch with a Singer aesthetic in a case inspired by the iconic watches of the 60s and 70s, with a deep connection to the world of motorsports; the perfect setting for the exceptional mechanics of the display complication invented by Genus.
With its 43mm diameter and cushion-shaped case, the elongated edges at 6 and 12 o'clock seem to magnify the case band, prolonging the arc of tension. The crown is positioned at 4 o'clock. Mounted on a leather strap perforated like the glove of a racecar driver from another time, it truly is a racer’s watch
The engine under the hood is the powerful Genus in-house caliber, a groundbreaking mechanical concept for telling time on a wristwatch. An unprecedented design, without a dial, without hands, the display complication centers around an award-winning innovation. Two patents have been filed for this time indication system in which a mechanical component – the genus – moves freely from one orbit to another on a non-linear, intersecting figure 8 trajectory: the symbol of infinity.
