For centuries, watches have relied on hands moving around a 12-hour scale. But time is defined by the Earth’s 24-hour rotation, made clear by the position of the sun.

In this concept HAYKES keeps the classic hands but introduces a groundbreaking addition: three LED indicators that bring time to life. The yellow LED represents the sun—watch it move across your wrist in real time. The blue and green LEDs mark sunset and sunrise, giving you a deeper connection to the rhythm of the day.

A fusion of tradition and innovation, redefining what a watch can be.

“Redefining Time: Haykes Watches, Guided by Nature”

In today’s world, the idea of a ‘good routine’ is shaped by society’s clock. But our bodies don’t follow societal time. The rhythm that governs us is not defined by minutes, hours, or weeks—it’s the rhythm of the universe, a natural flow guided by the cycles of days, months, and seasons.

Our internal clock aligns with the sun and its daily path across the sky, not with the rigid precision of alarms and workweeks. The 7:30 AM Monday rush, dictated by human-made time structures, often goes against our natural flow. We’ve divided the world into time zones, created clocks, and even invented atomic timekeeping, but in the end, it’s time that controls us, not the other way around.

If we want a balanced and relaxed life, we need to move away from seconds, minutes, and hours. Haykes Watches are designed to reconnect you with the universe’s natural rhythm. Instead of counting down every second, let the sun guide you. It’s the ultimate symbol of time—reliable, natural, and ever-present. All you need is the sun’s position in the sky to truly understand the passage of time. With Haykes, you’re not just telling time—you’re feeling it, living it.”

This remarkable timepiece offers a singular view that transcends traditional timekeeping. It displays your entire day at a glance, showing not just the current time, but also the position of the sun, the length of the day until sunset, and the night until sunrise. Uniquely, it reveals the day-night ratio, seasonal changes through day-night cycles, and even provides weather warning periods. With the push of a button, LEDs make the time visible both day and night. In its default mode, you’ll find a pure, minimalist design. In one elegant display, it encapsulates the full rhythm of your day—a groundbreaking innovation in the world of horology.

In the view above Haykes Watch displays the night from sunset to sunrise. The red LED indicates the sun’s position, showing the current time as 22:40. You can see the remaining hours of the night until sunrise at 04:20, marking the beginning of a new day. The analogue clock feature is active, seamlessly integrating modern technology with traditional timekeeping.

In the default view, Haykes Watch showing three LEDs gracefully illuminate: one capturing the true solar time, 16:30 another marking the moment of sundown 21:10, and the third heralding the arrival of sunrise at 4:15. Traditional clock feature is on for showing common (second) time. Weather control with sound warning is on.
