We have a winner!
-
A month ago, Ressence_watches and SothebysWatches launched a competition to design a unique watch, offering watch-lovers the opportunity to create their own interpretation of one of Ressence’s latest models, the Type 1 Slim. In the past few weeks, 466 people, from children and professional designers to watchmakers such as Alain Silberstein, enthusiastically entered the competition and submitted their
#WatchAgainstCovid19 designs.

A winner has now been chosen by the Instagram watch community among four finalists selected by Ressence founder Benoît Mintiens. The winning design - a pastel blue watch signed by English father-of-two Raymond Ramsden – is now being produced by Ressence’s manufacture in Switzerland, before it goes to auction in Sotheby’s Hong Kong Important Watches sale on 11 July. Proceeds from the sale will support the Covid-19 Research Programme being run by KU Leuven University in Belgium.
