Limited Edition of 100 numbered watches - SOLD OUT

The HYDRIUM X 'WILL RETURN' was selected to compete at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève 2022 

 

The Isotope Hydrium™ X "Will Return" is the living interpretation of the most iconic clock door sign, encapsulated in a high-quality Diver's watch case.

The inspiration comes from our frequent trips to New York, where the traditional clock door sign patiently informs us when the shop will be open again.

The hour and minute hands are similar to a water droplet and have an intriguing and adorable similarity to our "Lacrima", the dial motif we adopted to connect all Isotope Watches designs.

At the end of 2019, before the pandemic struck, we started creating and adapting the design to the real world. After two years and various iterations, we are ready to start the production of a Limited Edition of only 100 watches.

The "Will Return" is available on a bespoke watch case inspired by droplets and by the fluidity from the Streamline Moderne era, a principle we have consistently followed since we created the Rider Jumping Hour. 

The watch case is made out of machined and micro-blasted Stainless Steel, providing a grey, raw look, yet refined with Sapphire Crystal on the Watch Face, Bezel and open case back.

You could dive up to 300 meters deep with this watch, but you probably won't. Yet, we love to have an original and beautiful tool watch that can withstand whatever the adversity.

The dial is filled with Superluminova, for maximum visibility in the dark, certainly useful for when you are waiting for that shop to finally open again...

This "Will Return" Limited Edition comes with an automatic Swiss Made movement and no date window to ensure it stays as close to the original design as possible.

Prices within the U.K.

For customers in the U.K., all watches/products are priced including 20% of U.K. VAT.

As an example, if our watch is priced at £1,000, U.K. customers will need to pay £1,200 (£1,000 + £200 (20% VAT)

Isotope Watches Limited will not charge VAT when exporting, but you will certainly be asked to pay import duty and/or tax/VAT by your customs country.

How to pay for import duty/tax

We ship most of our products/watches via DHL Express. As per customs request, DHL will calculate the duty and taxes and they will collect the payment on behalf of your country's customs.
