ARGOS PHILIPPINES, a watch microbrand based in the Philippines, proudly unveils the ODYSSEY 2.0, the latest evolution of its flagship watch series, inspired by the pivotal age in the coming of modern human history: The Renaissance.
In the next stage of its journey, The Odyssey 2.0 comes in three romancing colors, signifying the revival of intellect and art lost during the dark ages. First, the white in lacquer finish represents enlightenment – of the emergence from the dark and pureness from divine inspiration. It was the color of revelation, worn by angels and imagined by thinkers as light breaking through ignorance.The second color of burgundy represents the mind – engaged in deep thought and passion to will and reason. A color worn by thinkers and magistrates, it embodied depth and cultivated wisdom.
The third color peach-salmon represents the hand – celebrating the power of the flesh to work and create. It symbolized the act of making, where the hand meets art in warm, living color.
The burgundy and peach-salmon colors are both made in a sunburst finish, symbolic of the boom of creativity that comes from the unity of mind and body.
Made for the everyday, the Odyssey 2.0 blends timeless design with modern craftsmanship. A top grade 316L stainless steel case in a 38mm diameter with brushed finish offers robustness and wearability on any occasion or activity. A date complication at the 3:00 position means you never lose touch of day. BGW9-lumed applied indices adds a different character at night, and a unique take for each of the colors.
The Odyssey 2.0 now comes in a leather strap with a deployant clasp.
True to the Argos Philippines philosophy, The Odyssey 2.0 is powered by the tested and true Japanese NH35 automatic movement, offering approximately 41 hours of power reserve, and the guarantee of a robust workhorse movement trusted by millions worldwide.
The Odyssey 2.0 is retailed at PhP 12,999.00 (approximately US$230.00) and can be shipped worldwide.
