An ode to the gate of time

The OLTO-8 Chrono Gate draws its inspiration from the golden age of 20th-century mechanical watchmaking—a time when technical mastery reached its peak, and the 24-hour dial embodied much more than a functional tool: it symbolized adventure and exploration. Today, that era is slowly fading, replaced by modern technology. But the craftsmanship and spirit it conveyed still deserve our admiration.

The Awakening of the Brand Icon

You won't find a classic logo on this watch: no metal plaque, no garish emblem. Because at OLTO-8, identity lies in the details. Take the finely sculpted hands, for example: their sandblasted surface offers a refined touch. The most poetic detail is at their tip—a small circular opening. When the hour and minute hands align, they form a discreet figure-8 silhouette, a subtle nod to our name: OLTO-8 .

Duality between steel and titanium

From its inception, the Chrono Gate was not intended to be simply "beautiful." Its design seeks a subtle balance: the power of bold lines, tempered by undeniable elegance.

The key that frees time

The moment you first put on the Chrono Gate , a gentle click sounds—not that of a second hand, but that of the moment when time opens up to you. Every 12 hours, the numbers on the dial move from “12” to “0” and back again, like a ritual of temporal rebirth. This is no longer simply the passage of time; it is a solo mechanical dance , making each moment intentional, poetic, and alive.

Lightness of precision, absolute dedication

To ensure time flows elegantly, the movement has been redesigned from the ground up. The fully skeletonized structure reveals a fascinating world of complex gears—a true open-air mechanical symphony . Each component is precision-polished: light, yet strong. A lightness that is never fragile.
