THE ART OF TIME
The Art of Time is a collaboration between Sarcar and Bahati Project, where Swiss horological precision meets a distinct artistic vision.
Time has always been treated as something fixed. Measured. Controlled.
The Art of Time challenges that idea.
Through this collaboration with Sarcar, Bahati Project brings a new perspective to Swiss watchmaking—one rooted in symbolism, perception, and artistic expression.
Each creation becomes a visual language where past, present, and future are not separated, but connected.
Not designed to follow time, but to transform the way it is experienced.
THINK AHEAD
At the heart of the dial lies an Adinkra symbol from the Akan people, meaning "think ahead”, which is engraved by hand and highlighted by black lacquer applied carefully.
This symbol is an ancient diagram of the mind looking to the future. Its strength lies in the balance of three key elements:
A circle holds everything together, like time itself — continuous, unbroken. The two vertical diamonds extending upward and downward symbolize past and future. They are not separated; they are connected through the center, where the hands are anchored, representing the present moment and awareness — the only place where time truly exists.
Each rotation becomes more than a measurement — it becomes a reminder that the future is shaped by what we choose to carry forward.
This watch does not simply measure time — it reflects how we choose to carry it.
CONTINUUM
Past and Future in Motion
A convergence of precision and symbolism, this timepiece redefines the language of contemporary haute horlogerie.
Created in collaboration with Sarcar, this watch brings together the technical mastery of Swiss watchmaking with the conceptual vision of Bahati Project - where time is no longer a constraint, but an experience.
Encased in 18K white gold, the 40 mm silhouette reveals a dial conceived as a living composition. At its center, a hand-executed micropainting becomes the foundation of a symbolic architecture, animated by four rotating diamonds totaling 2.00 carats. Their perpetual motion introduces a sense of fluidity - an ever-changing interplay between light, movement, and perception.
Beneath this artistic expression lies the refinement of the Frederic Piguet 615 automatic movement, a caliber chosen for its elegance and precision. Every component reflects a commitment to both mechanical excellence and aesthetic integrity.
The piece is further elevated by a snow diamond setting - over a thousand diamonds totaling more than 8 carats - extending across the case. Each detail is executed with the rigor of high jewelry and watchmaking craftsmanship.
Finished with a deep blue alligator strap, fully interchangeable, the watch balances strength and sophistication, offering versatility without compromising its identity.
This is not a watch designed to measure time.
It is a creation that transforms it.
AXIOM 360
A STUDY IN MOTION
At the heart of the dial, a mask moves freely, completing a full 360-degree rotation — an element with its own autonomy.
It does not simply mark time. It exists within it, yet apart from it. Moving independently, almost like a thought in motion.
This gesture sparked a deeper reflection: our perception of time itself. We are taught to see time as fixed, measurable, absolute. Yet our experience tells another story — an hour can stretch endlessly, while an entire day can disappear in a breath.
The rotating mask becomes a metaphor. A quiet reminder that time is not only something we calculate, but something we feel.
We structure our lives around schedules, obligations, and moments of pleasure. But beyond the mechanical rhythm, there exists another dimension — one shaped by intuition, awareness, and presence.
This piece was not created merely to measure minutes, but to awaken moments.
Because true luxury is not about owning time — it is about experiencing it consciously.
AXIOM 360 is a refined expression of contemporary haute horlogerie, combining Swiss mechanical precision with high jewelry craftsmanship.
The timepiece is housed in a 38 mm round case crafted in 18K red gold, with a balanced profile of 10 mm thickness. The dial, executed in matching 18K red gold, is meticulously set with diamonds and distinguished by a central rotating mask — hand-engraved, chiseled, and finished with multicolor lacquer. This element completes a full 360-degree rotation, introducing a distinctive kinetic dimension within the composition.
The watch is set with 384 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 2.79 carats, complemented by 96 black diamonds totaling 0.42 carats, creating a precise interplay of contrast and luminosity. The crown is finished with a 0.25-carat cabochon ruby.
At its core, the piece is powered by the Frederic Piguet 615 automatic movement, ensuring reliability and horological integrity. The dial is protected by sapphire crystal.
The timepiece is fitted with a black alligator strap, fully interchangeable, and secured with a gold deployant buckle set with diamonds.
AXIOM 360 is conceived as a limited and highly distinctive creation, where technical execution and decorative arts are brought into a singular, collectible form.
