Nu
Nu is a wristwatch with a water-filled dial. The dial holds water collected from some of the world's most polluted water sources, sterilized by ultraviolet light. Clear acrylic hands are submerged in the water and remain almost invisible. Touching the steel case activates a light-emitting diode that illuminates the hands to show the time. The case is topped with domed sapphire glass, and the strap is made of cactus leather. The form follows the contour of a dew drop resting on a leaf. The blue colour refers to the pristine ocean.

The A' Jewelry Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design recognition program that rewards excellent design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
