Founded in 2017, Fugue Watches got its start with a watch featuring a modular case with interchangeable lugs. The brand’s second model is altogether more interesting: Fiction One.

From the Kickstarter campaign:

“Fictions” is a new capsule collection that immerses us in inspiring universes of literary genres, embodied by horological creations. The Fiction One is the first edition of the series and is inspired by the mystery novel.

Furthermore, the design echoes the increasing complexity in characters and intrigues found in modern fiction by applying a “smoke-screen” pattern on the dial.

The design of the watch was a joint project by founder Léo Celi and designer Marc Tran. Radikal is used for name and logo. The numbers on the watchface and the information on its back are set in Barracuda. The box, designed by Frédéric Tacer, pairs Radikal and Bauer Bodoni.
