BaselWorld 2012: Quinting Presents The Tree of Knowledge Watch

For more than ten years, the company Quinting presents to the world the original Swiss watches, each instance of which - a unique solution of technical tasks. Beginning in 2000, when the company introduced its first chronograph, inventive brand’s masters are proven, as a kind of wizards who have realized the reality of the old dream of Swiss watchmaking: hands, which will float in the air as if in a completely transparent case.
At the watch annual international exhibition BaselWorld 2012 the company has introduced the original watch - The Tree of Knowledge. As noted by the company’s representatives, the creation of the original model is inspired by the philosophy statement: "Everybody knows something, but nobody knows everything." And even if everyone has the opportunity in their lives to learn constantly something, he still cannot know everything. And it says that the intelligence is collective. Every branch, every leaf, every fruit of collective intelligence, depicted on the dial of the model, are the part of the total.
The Tree of Knowledge watch is made on the basis of a unique absolutely transparent sapphire mechanism on a transparent background which shows a symbolic tree, which, however, is quite palpable.
The tree trunk is made of gold enamel, fruit made of ruby, and the apple represents the exquisite inlaid with sapphires.
Tree of Knowledge stands firmly on the ground and turned to the sky, which is also symbolic: in fact the owner of the watch stands firmly with both feet on the earth, drawing from her life force, and seeking the blessing of sight in the sky...
To buy the original The Tree of Knowledge watch will be available through the official representatives of the company at the end of the exhibition.
