Catalogue Essay
While renowned designer Marc Newson is known today in horological circles for his integral role in the creation of the Apple Watch, his watch-designing roots date back much further. The present watch is the brainchild between Marc Newson and Oliver Ike, the founders of Ikepod, which was created between 1993 and 1994. Launched in 2006, the Horizon model was made in a limited edition series of 66 examples each in 18K pink gold, platinum and titanium. Round and organic in its form, the present watch was incredible futuristic and unusual for the time. It is furthermore incredibly comfortable with its rubber strap and without a doubt shares a similar design ethos with the Apple Watch.

The present timepiece is presented in excellent and barely-worn condition and furthermore presented in excellent condition and is complete with all its original accessories such as certificate of origin and presentation box.
