Description
Slightly Off is a bold tribute to Virgil Abloh — one of the most impactful designers of the modern era. This Wear OS watch face is an appreciation of his legacy and a glimpse into a blend of contemporary horology and art, where precision meets provocation.
It intentionally breaks the grid, shifting expectations with a layout that feels just a few degrees askew. The result is a design that’s both disruptive and deliberate, blending digital and analog elements in a way that feels more like a statement than a utility.
The name isn’t just a nod to its rotated alignment — it’s a philosophy rooted in Abloh’s legacy. Known for reshaping the language of contemporary design, Abloh challenged what was considered “finished” or “correct.” His signature use of quotation marks recontextualized everyday objects, turning labels into commentary. Slightly Off echoes that approach: the quoted digital time isn’t just telling you the hour — it’s questioning what time even means in a world of constant redefinition.
This watch face is for people who want their watch to feel like a statement piece, not just a tool. It plays with the idea of “correctness” in layout, questioning norms of alignment and structure while still delivering a fully featured, highly customizable experience. It’s “off” — in the best way.
Just as Abloh blurred boundaries between streetwear and luxury, art and commerce, this watch face plays in the tension between order and disorder, elegance and edge. It’s not broken. It’s reimagined.
