KWH watch is BEHRENS' first timepiece created in collaboration with independent master watchmaker Vianney Halter. The inspiration for the Master Collection KWH watch came from a visit to Halter's workshop, where BEHRENS founder Lin Bingqiang noticed an antique electricity meter in Halter's collection. This echoed a similar industrial artifact he owned, and this trans-temporal resonance became the starting point of this creative endeavor.
The iconic square form of antique electricity meters was reinterpreted into a proportionally scaled-down watch case.
At its heart, the Master Collection KWH houses the newly developed BM06 manual-winding calibre, constructed from 870 components.
The watch's hour display takes direct cues from the classic video games Snake, using BEHRENS' patented ruby-bearing micro-chain mechanical system, equipped with a temperature-compensation adjustment system to ensure stability of the mechanism in all environments.
The lower half of the dial employs BEHRENS' axial display system:
Left axis: power reserve and day-night display
Right axis: minute display
Additional functions are integrated on the caseback, including a calendar and moon phase display at 12 o'clock, both adjustable via quick-set pushers.
The watch is finished with a nebula purple dial and paired with a moon white with nebula purple strap, featuring quick-release technology for convenience.
