Inspired by industrial conveyor belts and motorcycles, the debut watch from Devon’s new timepieces is the Tread 1. Featuring a new movement based around the company’s patented interwoven system of glass nylon time belts, an optical recognition system ensures the belts are in the correct position. The belts are driven by four microstep motors, which is powered by a lithium polymer rechargeable cell that will run for up to two weeks on a single charge. The watch was designed with the help of a Californian aerospace engineering company, which should go some way to justifying its $15,000 asking price.
