Explore your world
A graceful exploration of shimmering gold and brushed zirconium combined with brand-new technology for Huawei and timeless craftsmanship.
The film draws the viewer to primal beginnings of raw materials as abstract rocky structures break apart, transforming the beginning of time. We follow an individual piece of gold as it finds its place on the watch bezel as we watch the formation of a sophisticated and elegant timepiece.
Research & development
The brief was initially product-focused, FutureDeluxe wanted to develop a universe for the watch to live in, adding a sense of mystery and depth to the announcement story without overriding the primacy of the product. The film sees the celebration of a black nanocrystal ceramic bezel and six shimmering 18K gold inlays set around the latest in wearable tech.
