Anoma creates wearable sculptures inspired by the rich world beyond watchmaking. The rounded triangular shape of the A1 draws inspiration from a 1950s free-form table by Charlotte Perriand. We were also influenced by the organic softness of river stones and the dynamism of Constantin Brancusi's modernist sculptures. This sculptural case bends light and reflection, subtly reshaping the world around it. The A1 Optical takes this distortion even further, featuring an engraved dial inspired by Optical Art an artistic movement that transforms simple geometric patterns into captivating illusions. Fifty subtly offset triangles are engraved into the dial, one by one, using a sharp tool dragged across the metal base. The surface is then sandblasted and gently hand-polished to achieve the desired level of reflectiveness.
A1 Optical sits in Anoma's catalog as a sports-leaning independent watch worth comparing on the details: imagery, movement, case sizing, water resistance, and the official brand listing rather than headline price alone.
