It all starts when you wake up, at this precise moment when the first gleams of the dawn pull the mechanism of sleep. Accompanying its owner in various activities of the day, the timepiece continues to be loaded with light until sunset, when the colors turn red.

This is where its slow metamorphosis can begin. Tinged with green, the Datograph asserts its presence, always shining brighter until it takes precedence over humans. Now the star is her.

Then comes midnight. The moment is crucial. A real electric shock occurs inside the movement, releasing a large amount of energy to effect the date change. As the night lengthens in length, the luminescence of the timepiece gradually fades, until it returns to its initial state. The next day, everything starts again, like the infinite cycle of time.
