Time,taken apart.

A digital portrait of Farbod Panahi — through the watches, mechanics and stories that make time worth obsessing over.

01 / FORM

First, the form.

Before the mechanics reveal themselves, a watch is read through proportion, material, silhouette and the way every surface holds light.

02 / MOVEMENT

Then, the movement.

Past the dial, time becomes mechanical: wheels, springs, bridges and tolerances working together in a rhythm too precise to see at a glance.

03 / HISTORY

Behind it, history.

Every mechanism carries ideas that existed before it: inventions, experiments, makers and decisions passed from one generation to the next.
