* The single-hand watch - DEFAKTO EINS offers the acclaimed, high quality Ickler 3-piece watch case built in-house at the Ickler manufactury in Pforzheim, Germany. The semi-coarse brushing gives the case a subtle texture - the contrasting materials play off of the stark dial, for a modern and sophisticated look.
* The skeletonized single-hand enables the wearer to view time passing at a much slower pace which can be estimated with about 2 minutes accuracy.
