Influenced by an unforgettable era

At Second Hour we have long been fascinated by the timeless allure and effortless style of the art deco movement. The lifecycle of design is typically short, but the Art Deco period has not only endured but continues to inspire.

Design for Life

From architecture to interiors, the Art Deco design movement encompassed all aspects of life; a living testament to its broad appeal and designers’ ability to create immediate desirability regardless of the medium

A wealth of Inspiration

The Art Deco period gave us watch designs that will never go out of style, and evoke luxury and decadence.

Introducing the Memoir

In celebration of this golden era of design and style, the Memoir reignites our shared passion for a time when sophistication and class were the order of the day. Second Hour is proud to create a watch that pays homage to the genre, combining modern materials and our phenomenal finishing in a wearable package that is sure to delight.

What is the Memoir?

The Memoir is our very first dedicated dress watch. A timeless piece that evokes the enduring design cues of the art deco period, the Memoir wraps it all up with vintage proportions and incredible levels of finishing and craftsmanship. We found a new dial maker for the Memoir in order to achieve the very fine details inherent in the design. We know you’ll agree we really did our homework for this one.

It doesn’t look very Second Hour

Design for us has always been about following where inspiration takes us. Typically, that has meant sport and dive watches that have our design DNA embedded into the dials and cases. However, every now and then you get a flash that ignites your imagination and before you know it you’ve created something that just can’t be held back. In fact, we had other models lined up to release after the Gin Clear MkII, but the emergence of the Memoir design was entirely irrepressible. We moved everything aside and immediately set to work.

The Watch

Compact dimensions keep the Memoir true to its roots and make it wearable for just about anyone. At a modest 28mm case width and 39.5mm lug to lug, the Memoir provides ample real estate for the marvellously detailed dials, but the real surprise is the fit. At just 7.3mm case thickness and with its wonderfully curved case, the Memoir is a contoured dream. The sapphire crystal curves gracefully with the case, and this curve is reflected in the arc of the baton indices arrayed around the dial.

The superior craftsmanship isn’t just limited to what you can see. Inside ticks the outstanding engineering of the Swiss Made, Ronda Slimtech quartz, small seconds movement with 6 jewels and gold plating. This is not your average quartz ticker.

Presented in a range of charming colours, we haven’t left anyone out. From classic black to the more playful Ice Blue and red, the hardest part will be choosing the right Memoir for you. Each Memoir comes with a wonderfully soft, colour matched, Italian leather strap.
