The Plicate watch by LAYER for Nava replaces the traditional flat graphic dial with a faceted 3D surface inspired by the pleats of a paper fan.
The underside of the polyurethane strap is also pleated, allowing air to circulate between the watch and the wrist, while an asymmetrical clasp replaces the conventional buckle to create a more distinctive and tactile interaction that stands out in a crowded market.
Plicate reflects the studio’s interest in challenging established typologies by finding new possibilities within familiar forms.
