Brand vibe
Hong Kong design studio founded by Japanese industrial designer Yoshiaki Motegi in 2010. The name stands for "Time And Concept Style" and every collection is built around a single conceptual hook... Photography (dials that literally render as camera lens barrels), Water (ripples, droplets, ice cubes), Hobby Time (vinyl turntables, Polaroid film), and the more conventional Timepiece line. TACS is the rare object-as-watch brand that takes its references seriously. Major cool find.
