SevenFriday: Initial, crucial info

Given the fact it’s a tough job to break into the horological ecosystem, SevenFriday did that with ease with their industrial-inspired pieces of unconventional dimensions, decoration and functionalities. They are the modern face of luxury that’s not weighed down by the weight of century-old history and traditions, which is another reason behind the affordable prices of SevenFriday. It has worked tremendously in favor of the brand.

There’s nothing that SevenFriday hides about their roots and price structures but who would really like to go for them? That depends upon the perspective of the wearer.

As an occasional wear, the SevenFriday is a bargain; as daily wears, they are rather interesting options. We take a look at the SevenFriday M-Series; its design and inspiration to understand fully.

It is inspired by power-measuring tools of the industrial revolution era; turbines, ammeters and radios.

Its intelligent use of colors and textures on the dial are a result of with the 7-layered interface (alternately finished in grain and stamped cast iron; iridescent, matte and satin), covered by an anti-reflective mineral glass, which is not the run-of-the-mill kind. It’s a specially-hardened and domed crystal that ensures visual enhancement, clarity and optimum protection.

SevenFriday M series: Reading the time

You must be wondering by now, how these watches actually tell the time? It’s fairly easy. There are three customized, rotating discs showing hours, minutes and the seconds. Reading time will require you to work your way from the outermost disc towards the innermost – from hours to the seconds. The open balance-wheel structure of the Japanese Miyota 8215 movement ensures precision timekeeping (+10 seconds/day) and a running power of 40 hours when fully wound. This robust movement is known for not breaking down easily, making it a perfect choice for the modern and sporty SevenFriday M-Series watches.

M Series: The common factor

The NFC Compatibility is a necessary security measure for every SevenFriday M Series watch, which is an assurance towards weeding out fakes. This very unique step of embedding Near Field Communication or NFC chips at the watch bases help in authenticating the watch by registering with the SevenFriday database through a mobile application. The tech involved is amazingly simple; this radio frequency identification (RFID)-derived tech operates as one end of a wireless link that’s activated by another remote chip to exchange small amounts of data through the SevenFriday app.
