Introducing Miansai Watches

image

For those already hooked on Miansai‘s popular leather cord + hook bracelets, make room for their new watches.  Available in three styles – the M1, a perpetual | the M2, a chrono | the M3, an automatic – they all share features + motifs synonymous with the brand.  The second hand, for example, is a small hook like that of their famous wrap-around leather bracelets + the crown came from a screw cuff.  Other features include bands made from leather, customized ribbon + rope or a combo.  Yet, the best feature of Miansai’s watches is founder + creative director Michael Saiger’s thought on creating a watch that can be worn anywhere by anyone.  

‘I wanted to make watches that didn’t lean towards any of that but rather, were just good-looking, classic + ageless styles that anyone + everyone could wear regardless of the occasion.’

Water resistant + available in many color combinations, it would be hard not to buy more than one especially when your options include cognac, black, navy + cappuccino leather + black, green, navy + red rope.  Retailing for $355 to $500, they are available online + at many of the worldwide retailers that carry Miansai.

Check out the Co Spring 2013 collection starring alongside Marisa Tomei + Elodie Bouchez as a lesbian couple in fashion film ‘She Said, She Said’.  Directed by Stuart Blumberg, watch as the couple, on the brink of divorce, tries to divide their possessions through mediation.  At times, you too want to say ‘Ha!’ (take that!), and yet, there’s still a tenderness to their ‘break-up’ as they reminisce over their possessions.  The final possession is a gorgeous black dress, which in the end, ‘saves’ their marriage, or does it?

The collection throughout the film is just perfect for such a narrative, including luxe looks in gunmetal silk, fur bottom tops + femme fatale black pumps – the same pumps that open the film with them exiting an elevator + end the film, as seen under the mediation table with the couple playing footsie.  Super sexy!
