Today, HUMISM creations have reached more than 60 countries, and the brand donates 2% of sales to charities.

The Watch

Discover the Humism Eidos 42 mm watch, where artistic design meets technical ingenuity. Its round 316L stainless steel case combines strength with a matte, brushed finish. At 42 mm in diameter and 11,90 mm thick, it makes a statement while remaining refined, ideal for men seeking a watch that is understated yet distinctive. The steel bezel adds a subtle touch of elegance. Sculptural styling makes this watch as compelling visually as it is mechanically.

The Dial

The dial is the visual centerpiece of this watch, bringing art and mechanics together through black-and-white rotating discs. Their intricate, hypnotic pattern catches both the light and the eye. As the discs turn, the dial takes on a new look from moment to moment. Minimalist hour markers keep it legible without compromising its clean aesthetic, while the transparent case back offers a view of the mechanism at work.

The Movement

At the heart of this watch is a NH35A automatic caliber made by Seiko Corp. for exceptional precision and reliability. This Japanese movement uses a rotor to convert wrist motion into energy, eliminating the need for a battery. Rotating discs display the hours and minutes with the fluid motion associated with fine watchmaking. It is made for those who appreciate sophisticated mechanics and bold design.

The Strap

The black cowhide leather strap elegantly complements the watch case. Its grained finish and delicate stitching reflect quality craftsmanship. Supple yet sturdy, it feels comfortable and refined on the wrist. A pin buckle makes it secure and easy to fasten. Its black color pairs perfectly with the dial details, making this a timeless, versatile design.

Water Resistance

With 5 ATM water resistance, this watch can handle splashes, rain and occasional showers, but it is not designed for prolonged immersion. Its protection comes from careful construction, including a sapphire crystal case back and a case built to withstand everyday wear.
