Our Swatch TimeOut concept watches... the idea behind it is so very simple...
Instead of reading the time in the center, here the hands are revolving around the perimeter of the watchface...
hence TimeOut(side)

The housing assembly accommodates modularity to the infinite...
A watch face in unique style is adhered to the outside of the clear main housing.
The watch movement is more or less standard the centre stem of the hands is simply hidden behind the exterior face, making the hands seem to 'float'.

The rear housing is also transparent, the watch movement is adjusted via dial from the rear > no side crown adjustment necessary > think alarm clock-type adjustment!
The battery sits behind a sealed door... again, super simple, yet so clean!
All you need to customize from one design to another is to adjust the rear door/crown colors.
This was the first swatch... below find the design turned inside out...
Here is a timeout inside-out revision of above first swatch (sorry, logo is missing :))
Exterior face and different hands and you have a new design. Even cheaper to assemble than regular Swatches, as face is added as last assembly step from the outside.
Our version of a military/metal watch face.
Non-working appearance model.
