Light Play

The domed edges of our dials, sunburst finishes and contrasting use of polished and brushed steel give each watch its own personality.

Our gradient dial is a chameleon, bronze gilt accents emit warmth, domed dial edges swoop into shadow and polished case bevels discreetly slim the watch toward the wrist.

What do the Experts say?

"Clemence walks a fine line here in embracing the tried and true while doing it in a way that feels wholly original."

- Blake Buettner

"The proportions of the Photic are absolute perfection, as it wears brilliantly on wrist and is also very comfortable"

- Will Duncan

"Photic Diver has some vintage-inspiration and keeps things slim with little fuss but lots of flair."

- Mike Razak

"The edges of the dial curve down away from the crystal, right where the color is the blackest. It’s genuinely lovely."

- Dave Sergeant

"The Ultimate Shark Week Watch:

2021"

"this is a charming, elegant diver with versatility on land and natural acclimation in the sea...from a nation planting some of the deepest roots to protect our aquatic ecosystems"

- Nate DeNicola

Drilled lugs make strap changes a breeze, although we love our steel bracelet and tropic rubber strap, there's no denying the Photic would look great on leather or a Nato.
