Ventura v-tec Kappa Watches


As part of a multi-style release, some of Hannes Wettstein’s last bit of work has surfaced in the following Ventura v-tec Kappa. The heralded Swiss industrial designer faced an untimely passing in 2008 but his legacy lives on with this minimalistic yet bold design with the v-tec Kappa. Beyond the clean face of the watch itself, a Titanox casing is produced with titanium parts subjected to extreme heat under a vacuum which is then cooled with liquid nitrogen. The watch and its three versions will release later this summer with a suggested retail price of €920 EUR (approximately $1,236 USD).
