LEBOND SIZA

At 89 years old, renowned architect Alvaro Siza has unveiled his latest creation, the Lebond Siza mechanical automatic watch. Siza's artistic vision and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this exceptional timepiece.

The inspiration for the watch came from the Leça swimming pool, which Siza designed in 1966 at the age of 28. The watch case shape was based on the square main pool, and the watch hands were adapted from the minimal restroom signs that Siza used on numerous projects.

The watch is made of titanium grade 5, which was chosen by Siza for its lightness and beautiful micro-sanded matte finish. The strap is crafted from fkm black rubber and comes with a deployant clasp for comfort and durability. The watch case back displays the exposed movement, while the signature "A. Siza" floats on the sapphire crystal, making this watch a timeless piece.

The Lebond Siza watch is an exceptional timepiece that seamlessly blends style and functionality, showcasing the architect's talent for creating minimalist and elegant designs.
