Introduction

Are you a music lover who secretly wishes for a timepiece that reflects your passion for vinyl? Look no further! The new Vinyl Record Automatic Watch by AndoAndoAndo offers a stylish nod to analog music lovers everywhere, transforming your wrist into a mini turntable that echoes the design of the legendary Technics SL-1200. This turntable has been a favorite among DJs since the late 1970s, and now its iconic design makes a brilliant reappearance as a wristwatch.

Design and Features

Crafted with precision, this watch features an ultra-thin Miyota 9039 mechanical movement that boasts a remarkable 42-hour power reserve between windings. Staying true to the essence of the Technics SL-1200, the watch face eliminates traditional number labels. Instead, you'll find clever dots encircling the platter that indicate the current hour, minute, and seconds.

In a truly ingenious design, the minute hand mimics a turntable's tone arm, while a miniature vinyl record sits below it. The record includes a label made of two spinning discs: the larger disc marked with the letter 'A' tells you the current hour, whereas the smaller disc, which shows the seconds, might take a little practice to read. Ando suggests that when the text on this smaller disc levels out, it indicates the seconds transitioning from one minute to the next.

Availability and Variants

Currently available for preorder in three stunning variants, music enthusiasts can choose a model with a striking red, black, and silver finish or a sophisticated black, gold, and black finish—all priced at $438. For those looking for something even more luxurious, an exclusive all-gold version is available for $455, but hurry—only 30 units will be produced!

Conclusion

The Vinyl Record Automatic Watch is not just a timekeeper; it's a statement piece for anyone who cherishes the rich and warm sounds of vinyl over digital music. With shipping anticipated as early as April 2025, don’t miss your chance to bring a piece of music history to your wrist! Will you be among the lucky ones to own this exquisite blend of nostalgia and craftsmanship?
