An eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when an astronomical object is temporarily obscured, by passing into the shadow of another body. An eclipse appears when Earth – Moon – Sun become straight line.
The Eclipse NEO watch shows time like special astronomical show on your wrist.
This watch does not use normal hands, but uses marks on the disc as hands. These marks shows time like space show.
Hour disc – Sun Minute disc – Moon second disc – Comet
Simple solid shape, impressive form of watch is nice not only for casual occasions but also for formal uses.
Instead of normal hands, Eclipse NEO uses 3 x disc for Hour, Minutes, second.
Circle disc shows hour, moves like Sun, Black dot disc shows minute, moves like Moon, small dot shows second, moves like comet.
The way of showing time is quite simple, and easy to read time like normal watch.
Depending on the timing of overlapping discs, you can feel partial solar eclipse or annular solar eclipse. Concept of this watch comes from annular eclipse. Annular eclipse can be seen only for few minutes, it is same as actual eclipse.
The beginning of watch is based on movement of Sun, Moon, Earth ( revolution/rotation).
In 2007 there was eclipse whole Japan area. In the same year, we decided to develop first version of eclipse watch that shows time like Sun – Moon.
In 2009, we developed 2nd version of “Eclipse Lite” it is smaller ver.
10 years after the release of 2nd ver., we have decided to develop 3rd generation of eclipse which is called “Eclipse NEO”, as we have had so many request of releasing new version.
