Life is so much better when you take it slow. Slowlex is a wristwatch for the present-minded. The inspiration came from an empty snail shell that Illenberger discovered on a stroll in the garden of her Italian summer home. The find was then brought to the Kunstgeißerei St. Gallen, metrologically scanned and recreated as a wristwatch.
The outcome is a wearable Object Trouvé, which poetically captures time as a status symbol. Sterling Silver or Sterling Silver Gold-plated shell combined with a multicolored NATO Strap. Limited Edition of 250.
