The HDS Hands brings us to the 1980s where we relied heavily on inspiration from renowned functionalist Dieter Rams, a name synonymous with brutally beautiful, industrially iconic German engineering and design. The elements of the HDS offer a deft blend of German minimalist expression inspired by the best of Rams's work for Braun. All three versions feature a bold oversized outer minutes ring surrounding two separate hours tracks one housing clean Arabic numerals, the other line markers. The separate concentric rings give off a stepped effect, enhanced by the subtly darker gray of the outer minutes ring. Note the hands: in lieu of staid, straight pieces, we™ve tapered them, adding some contrasting curve and liveliness to the domination of straight lines. What's more, the gasket yellow is echoed through the dial emblem and seconds hand.
