Exaequo Melting Watch adds three limited Revolve references in steel, each capped at 301 pieces: two IP gold-treated cases with blue and dark green dials, and one IP silver-effect case paired with a green dial. The palette does the storytelling here – colour as character, not decoration.
The form remains the point. Revolve keeps its asymmetric, angular case – a sculptural outline said to echo feminine lips – and leans into Surrealist cues without losing wearability. At 33 x 51.2 mm under curved mineral glass, it is a deliberate object with clear intent rather than an exercise in symmetry.
Details are restrained and graphic. Tone-on-tone indices and numerals sit on matte dials, while hands carry black Super-LumiNova for low-light clarity. Case and lug surfaces play a measured game of polished against sandblasted, with a stainless steel caseback fixed by four screws. A snap crown and a black silicone strap with a butterfly clasp complete the set.
Inside is a Ronda 762 quartz movement – simple, reliable, and fitting for a design-first brief. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which sets expectations appropriately for daily life rather than aquatic ambition.
The two IP gold versions read warmer and more tactile – blue for quiet contrast, dark green for depth – while the silver-effect steel with green dial skews cooler, a touch more industrial. None screams for attention. They invite a second look, which is the more difficult trick.
This is not about complication counts or finish bravura. It is about a clear visual thesis held consistently across variants. Revolve bends the line between art object and everyday watch just enough to be interesting – and then stops, wisely, before affectation sets in.
