The Abacus Timepiece is a visionary watch design that merges the ancient elegance of the Chinese Abacus calculator with the precision of modern watchmaking and dynamic aesthetics of modern sports cars. The watch dial, inspired by the Abacus, reinterprets traditional counting into a contemporary timekeeping mechanism. Its case, crafted with flowing lines, premium materials and accent colors, echoes the aerodynamic design of high-performance vehicles. With a US Design Patent (US D965445S), this project is poised to bring a unique collector's timepiece to life, celebrating heritage and innovation.
