Press Release
Monovant is pioneering the watchmaking industry with revolutionary initiatives at the forefront of high-end horology and cutting-edge technology.
Our goal is to create true conversation pieces that stand out in design, quality and innovations. The dials, hands, and straps are handmade, and we exclusively use Swiss movements, tweaked for performance and backed by a 5-10 year guarantee. Kosta 1.0 (99 limited pieces – sold out) featured a more formal, business-casual aesthetic, while our latest creation (Rheon) is the ideal everyday wearer, offered with both bracelet and rubber strap options.
Our drive for innovation inspired our debut piece to empower the wearer express their true style and identity, both offline and in the virtual worlds that have become integral to our lives, yet often lack personalization. While the technical aspects of blockchain are fascinating, Monovant believes that mass adoption depends on providing people with real-world examples of its applications. This led to the creation of the world’s first phygital watch. A physical timepiece accompanied by virtual representations that serve as accessories for the owner’s digital avatars (in games, virtual experiences, and social media). The latest version of Kosta 1.0 featured an NFC chip embedded in the strap, which links to any URL when scanned, minimizing the need for traditional business cards.
Every element of Rheon has been designed from scratch, blending retro and futuristic elements. The case is sleek, perfectly proportioned, and features a large window to showcase the rich blue dial. Speaking of dials, each one is truly one-of-a-kind (regardless of the material), reflecting our dedication to uniqueness. We’ve also developed our own anti-shock compound to prevent cracking in stone dials, while only 1 in 10 pieces cut are selected to ensure minimal or no inclusions. Although Rheon does not have the dual-character of Kosta 1.0, the NFC chip will also be incorporated on the rubber strap of selected owners.
Finally, Monovant’s inventive spirit extends into engaging virtual showrooms and games, where visitors can instantly create personalized avatars and explore the watches in an immersive digital environment, marking a significant step toward the future of online shopping.
In the end, our creations have encouraged watch enthusiasts to explore the possibilities ahead, and tech enthusiasts explore the fascinating world of watchmaking. We promise that our watches will continue to push boundaries, introducing new innovations in line with the evolving dynamics of our interconnected world.
Stay tuned!
