Like most classic car enthusiasts, I also appreciate watches. The intricate mechanics that go into creating an automatic movement are equally fascinating as those in an internal combustion engine. So, what happens when you’re a car enthusiast looking for a watch?
Mike Amezcua, founder of ShiftPattern, made it a personal quest to answer that question. The result is a simple, elegant timepiece with a quartz movement. At first glance, it’s just a nice watch, but BMW enthusiasts will immediately recognize the design language from the clocks that were fitted to E30s and E28s back in the day. A soft black NATO Strap with M colors seals the deal. I was able to get my hands on one, and one fine Saturday, a friend and I captured these images of the watch in everyday lifestyle settings.
