While I personally find myself more drawn to the, shall we say, more classic designs that moVas creates, I can’t help but to find the crazier stuff (now finding a home under the Exotica banner) at least interesting to consider – and perhaps to dream about wearing. The most recent introduction to this line is the moVas Exotica Incognito Bluey.
This is a rather logical extension from their Twin Timer, in that the creation of the former led to the moVas Exotica Incognito Bluey. How so? You see, the design team was listening to a lot of music over the seven-year timeframe that the Twin Timer took for being created – specifically, acid jazz from Jean Paul “Blues” Maunick.
I can’t say as I’m familiar with the man’s music, but I dig the nickname, and the accents that it brings to the moVas Exotica Incognito Bluey. While the blue is cool, the obvious star of the show is the hunka-hunka burning titanium that is the 48mm case. Oh, titanium isn’t cool enough for your school? Well, let’s toss some forged carbon bezels on there for good measure, shall we?
Yeah, when it comes to the materials that this watch is made from, the moVas Exotica Incognito Bluey definitely has got the goods. On the style front, well, that is very much the case of beauty being in the eye of the beholder. I can appreciate the watch for being an out-there funky design, and I do like that Sean Wai and his team are pushing the limits of what people might be expecting out of the brand.
As to wether or not I’d wear the moVas Exotica Incognito Bluey regularly? I’d have to see it in person to know for sure. I will say that there are some very interesting elements, and of course the blue accents on the $ 2,380 watch have my eye as well. Then again, with only 25 of these being made, you are probably not likely to run across one in the wild. If you do, make sure to play a righteous trombone solo as you walk over to behold it. movaswatches.co
