The BASE60 mechanical watch is currently the thinnest wandering hour complication watch made in the world.

Have you ever wondered how time is organized into a system of seconds, minutes, and hours? The mechanical precision of a watch counts on it! The ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia recognized about 5,100 years ago that the smallest number divisible by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 is 60. Sixty is a highly composite superior number because it is also more divisible than any other positive integer less than that (it also divides by 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60)! The Babylonians applied this sexagesimal counting method (using a single number of digits from 0 to 60) to astronomy, circular geometry, calendar, and time: it is also more simply known as Base 60. Thus, 60 seconds make a minute; 60 minutes make an hour. Angles Watches has streamlined the way each hour now extends to those 60 minutes when read on your wrist. The BASE60 is a time machine.

Unlike other watches, the BASE60 waterproof watch tells the time via a system known as wandering hour. The readability is clear and sharp: the hour of the time is inside its window and flows counterclockwise on the fixed minute register. As the hour passes, it points to the current minute. Of course, our videos show this process accelerated!
