Krayon’s rose-gold Anyday transforms the humble calendar into high horology
Krayon has introduced a rose gold version of its Anyday watch, showcasing a unique blend of high horology and practical functionality. Founded by Rémi Maillat in 2013, the independent Swiss brand focuses on limited production and complex mechanical art. The Anyday watch features a slim 39mm case and an innovative calendar mechanism with a fully in-house movement, allowing for a clear display of monthly dates. Maillat emphasizes the importance of providing essential information without relying on smartphones, transforming the traditional calendar into a wearable piece of art. The design of the Anyday maintains an understated elegance, with a clear dial and a dual-hand display that seamlessly integrates a planner for workweeks. Maillat's background in micro-technology and experience with Cartier inform his approach to marrying engineering with handcrafted details. Krayon’s commitment to independence and simplicity sets it apart in the competitive watchmaking landscape, allowing it to carve out a modern niche that appeals to collectors seeking both technical sophistication and aesthetic beauty.
