“Figures,” (Wristwatch / Clock), 2005
Vignelli Associates, New York
Made by Pierre Junod, Switzerland
Incised mark on verso: “L + M Vignelli” “Pierre Junod” “Figures 05” “Swiss Made”
Battery operation, leather band.
Provenance: Purchased at Moss, New York in 2005
No original box or packaging material is available.
Condition: Good. The leather band became too worn and was replaced by a band designed or sourced by Pierre Junod (it is impressed with its name) that uses more sustainable materials. The original band was kept and they are visible together in one photograph in this listing, with the original curled in the shape of a wrist.
Notes: Original digital invoice available. A screenshot of the top of it is included here. No box
Important: The battery currently needs to be replaced and a preferred company that I use will be recommended to the buyer.
Additional: The watch is currently hung on an interior wall using a T-pin for display and to evoke a wall clock.

Massimo Vignelli statement about the Watch follows:

Figures

“Is It Ten To Four Or Ten To Five? This Clock Was Designed To Put An End To Those Doubts.
It Is For All Those Who Want To Know The Exact Time Without The Possibility Of Error. The
Hour Indicators Are There, But Small Enough Not To Be Intrusive, Like Little Dots….” 

– M. Vignelli
