A Holiday Gift Guide - Design Focused Watches & Accessories By Kross Studio, a Swiss Atelier

The extraordinary Swiss design atelier Kross Studio specialises in producing high-performance collectibles, many of which are imbued with pop culture, comics, science fiction, and fantasy. Kross Studio's in-house designs and high-profile collaborations like Warner Bros. Consumer Products and famous designer Alain Silberstein provide a rich source of inspiration.

This variety of upscale gift items and collectibles includes watches, a watch winder, useful art objects, and luxury accessories inspired by "Batman," as well as unique Kross Studio creations such as the new classic colours watch line. Each Christmas gift selection is certain to appeal to both watch enthusiasts and pop culture enthusiasts.

A Stylish and Linked Watch Winder

Kross Studio Aluminum Watch WinderThe new linked watch winder from Kross Studio is the ideal present for wristwatch and minimalist design enthusiasts. Equipped with a next-generation motor, a Bluetooth connection, and a specialised smartphone application, the Kross Studio watch winder blends function and design, simplicity, and great performance.

The ingenious winder consists of two parts: the winding motor and its support, which may be simply removed for storage when winding a watch. The support, made of brushed metal, blends in effortlessly with the most fashionable interiors.

The winding engine, one of the most powerful currently available, harnesses the force of its tremendous movement to sustain the mechanism of any automated mechanical watch contained inside the winding capsule. It has an infrared sensor that recognises the presence of a watch and activates the winder accordingly. When no watch is present, the gadget enters a power-saving dormant mode.

The Bluetooth interface gives the owner access to all of the watch's characteristics through an application for smartphones, Kross Watch Winder, which is available on the App Store and Google Play. Thus, the user may establish appropriate parameters for their automatic watch model, including fine-tuning the rotation direction, rotation duration, and load management.

Variously-hued Leather Watch Rolls

Rolls of Kross Studio Classic Colors WatchesKross Studio has introduced a new collection of traditional leather watch rolls in an assortment of hues. Each roll provides the optimal combination of protection, upmarket materials, timeless design, and practical usefulness. Vegetable-tanned leather covers with contrast stitching are available in a variety of colours, from neutrals (tan, grey, black) and classic tones (navy blue, green, gold, baby pink) to more saturated colours (royal blue, orange, red, yellow, turquoise).

Thanks to a detachable cushion insert, fine microfiber lining, and carefully padded, stitched, and panel-reinforced case walls, the thoroughly tested rolls provide unrivalled protection and shockproofing for any timepiece or smartwatch, at home or abroad. The 'legs' on the bottom of each roll allow them to be stored discretely in a carry-on or dresser drawer, as well as proudly exhibited and standing erect.

Kross Studio The Batman Rolling Watch Collection

The partnership between Kross Studio and Warner Bros. Consumer Products has resulted in four watch rolls, each of which is an ideal gift for watch enthusiasts and fans of the Caped Crusader. The new series of luxuriously textured leather watch rolls, each available individually for $250 USD, offers four unique depictions of key characters from the film "The Batman": Batman (two versions), Selina Kyle (Catwoman), and The Riddler.

Each watch holder is fashioned from real tan vegetable leather and has a screen-printed image of a stunning figure. Kross Studio created each watch roll with distinctive highlights and complementing hues inspired by the film character portrayed, including screen prints and contrast stitching in red for Batman editions, blue for Selina Kyle (Catwoman) options, and green for The Riddler model.

Snap-top closures that open wide to fit any kind of watch are padded with a replaceable pillow insert. High-quality black microfiber fabric and dense cushioning efficiently prevent scratches and damage to the dial and band or strap by cradling and protecting the watch inside. A co-branded patch sewn into the watch roll flap verifies the authenticity of each product. A QR code on the provided instruction card takes the owner to a registration website where they can view the digital user manual and activate the extended 3-year warranty.

A Collector Set and Dream Timepiece from Kross Studio and Alain Silberstein

Alain Silberstein Lotus TourbillonA Kross Studio and Alain Silberstein collection set is the present of a lifetime for design enthusiasts. The renowned designer sought the Swiss design studio for assistance in realising his high horological vision: a lotus-inspired titanium watch that embodies the spirit of the holy Asian flower and is presented as a one-of-a-kind totemic art item. There will only ever be eighteen Lotus timepiece collector sets produced.

A titanium lotus blossom that seems fragile floats over the tourbillon cage and central regulator of the renowned Kross Studio KS 7'000 movement. The fleeting, holy lotus blossom serves as a reminder that every moment is priceless. Kross Studio's creative technological embellishments, such as the peripheral hour and minute display and a smart and intuitive D-ring winder on the case back, enhance Silberstein's distinctive strong graphic aesthetic, which is skillfully applied throughout the clock. Silberstein's aesthetic language is also evident in the totemic watch casing that completes this collector's collection; it is a utilitarian art piece created specifically for this partnership. The Lotus Tourbillon is housed in a chamber elegantly incorporated into the yellow cube between a blue triangle and a red square.
