SEKVENS: Form follows function

“A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” – Antoine de Saint-Exupery.

Here at Henry Archer, Danish design is part of our DNA. Our approach to the design of SEKVENS is based on the two main rules for which Danish design is known:

Simplicity and functionalism.

Our core value is that a good watch should not only be attractive to look at. It is also important that the materials are of the same high quality and that there is a practical functionality behind the design.

For example, the automatic movement that means that SEKVENS doesn’t use a battery in order to work. This also applies to the double-domed sapphire crystal, which has both an exclusive domed shape, but which is also extremely tough – surpassed only by diamonds in hardness. Or the angular crown that gives the watch a unique look, and at the same time makes it easy to wind up the movement when the watch has been stationary for a period of time.

All are examples of how form follows function on SEKVENS.
