Introducing Kollokium Unveils the Projekt 01 Variant "E"

Kollokium returns with its latest release. More than a year after the brand's remarkable debut with the special edition of the Projekt 1, named "Friends & Family," followed by two additional limited editions, the rising brand is once again setting higher standards. After the first three editions, all featuring black dials with distinct seconds hands and luminous designs, the brand now introduces its fourth edition.

Kollokium reaffirms its position as a leader in Brutalist watch design, an approach that emphasizes functional aesthetics, transforming raw industrial forms into a work of art. The watch retains its distinctive design identity, featuring a die-cast steel case and a three-dimensional dial with 468 hand-applied elements.

Now presented in a darker and more striking look. This edition is characterized by contrasting hands and is available in a limited run of 499 pieces, making it the brand’s most widely available release to date, following previous editions that were limited to fewer than 100 pieces.

Measuring 40mm at its widest, the Projekt 01 remains compact yet bold in form. Crafted from stainless steel using die casting, the process involves injecting liquid metal into a mold that captures the negative impression of the intended shape. This technique results in an unfinished, industrial texture, enhancing the watch’s raw aesthetic.

The case consists of two components, a barrel-shaped case back and cruciform lugs inspired by screwdriver heads, designed to echo industrial architecture. Eliminating the bezel allows for an unobstructed view, with a highly domed “box” sapphire crystal featuring an anti-reflective coating that amplifies the visual depth of the dial.

Previously seen in black, the signature dial now appears in a grey PVD finish, available in two variations, ‘’E1’’ Black hands with grey luminescent outlines and a fluorescent yellow seconds hand.

‘’E2’’ A reverse configuration with fluorescent yellow hour and minute hands, filled with the same grey luminescent paint as the dial, paired with a black seconds hand.

Powering the Projekt 01 Variant "E" is the same Swiss movement found in its predecessor, the La Joux-Perret G101. This automatic caliber beats at 28,800 vph and delivers an impressive 68-hour power reserve.

Limited to 499 pieces, the Kollokium Projekt 01 Variant "E" will be available starting February 26. A select number of pieces will be offered to company subscribers approximately 24 hours before public sales open. Pricing will be announced on the same day.
