A rare and surprisingly modern-feeling vintage piece: a Braille wristwatch designed to be read by touch. Under the hinged opening cover sits a beautiful hot-fired enamel dial with raised tactile dots around the perimeter – allowing the time to be “felt” with your fingertips – paired with a clean inner ring of black numerals. It’s functional design in its purest form, and it looks fantastic even if you never use it as a tactile watch. The proportions are very wearable (33 mm class), and the overall aesthetic is unlike typical 1970s dress watches: crisp white enamel, bold black printing, and thick, protective hands intentionally shaped to withstand gentle fingertip contact. Key features (how the Braille watch works) This watch has an opening protective cover. Once opened, the enamel dial reveals raised Braille-style points around the outer edge, which allow the wearer to read the time by touch. The hands are made thicker and more robust than normal to reduce the risk of bending or damage during tactile reading.
