Welcome to Direnzo Watches, where timeless elegance meets retro-futuristic innovation. We are thrilled to introduce our latest timepiece, the DRZ 02R Aerolite (R stands for reduced). Building upon the success of our iconic DRZ 02, this reimagined model combines a smaller form factor with a striking metal bracelet, resulting in a timepiece that exudes sophistication and versatility.

In addition to its retro-futuristic aesthetics, the DRZ 02R Aerolite introduces an exciting array of new colors, including the striking Burnt Orange variant. This vibrant hue adds a bold and adventurous touch to the timepiece, further accentuating its retro-futuristic appeal.

Practicality and functionality are key aspects of the DRZ 02R Aerolite. The SuperLuminova on the crown ensures optimal visibility in low-light conditions, while the precise automatic movement guarantees accurate timekeeping and exceptional durability.

The most outstanding feature of the case is its elliptical elevation, a design element that pays homage to the sleek lines of vintage Bugatti automobiles. This unique shape accentuates the watch’s edges with polished fillets, showcasing meticulous attention to detail. Furthermore, the countercurve at the transversal section generates intriguing shadow play, adding depth and dimension to the timepiece.

Join us on this horological journey as we unveil the DRZ 02R Aerolite, a tribute to the past, designed for the present, and destined to become a cherished heirloom of the future.

aero ...comes from the Greek means " air "

associated with flying , lofty, ethereal

interesting design from content down under which lies i close geographical proximity to the china wrist clock factories

china birth rate falls to 40 year low... all over the world populations are aging and not many babies being born

social transfer network first used in GERMANY in the late 19th century relies on a population pyramid of old close to death and young workers greater in number sending checks via the government to old folks

that population period is turned on its head

boomers a vast post WWII generation living long with pharma & med tech

millennial and Gen Z not enough people

babies ? many couples getting a doodle instead

AI will it ride to the rescue and a robot wipe your but and cook dinner ?

well the GODFATHER OF AI sez AI is an existential threat...AI is smarter than homo sapiens and AI learns to " deceive "

ROUTE 95 COLLAPSES IN PHILLY @roadwarrior


AQI 73 AirNow.gov in my forest air aint fit to breath...Canada sez fires will burn " all summer "

Forest light mushrooms : are among the one hundred fungi species that are bioluminescent. They are usually found in Asia.
Bioluminescent mushrooms

Can you eat bioluminescent mushrooms?
Yes, they are an edible mushroom that may make you sick! As if that's not cool enough, Honey Mushrooms glow in the dark, creating green glow known as foxfire. These mushrooms are “on” both day and night!

:oops:Something you always hate to see.:nono:
human remains found a few days later

traffic snarled in PHILLY just in tyme for summer Jersey Shore crush...not to mention major truck and car NORTH-SOUTH INTERSTATE 95

months to repair and replace-

what's it all mean MR NATURAL

well IKE beat them NAZIS but observed the ROADS SYSTEM DESIGNED TO DEPLOY RAPID WAR FARE WITH TANKS INVADING EUROPE ON BENZEDRINE aka SPEED known as BLITZKERIG

so Ike came home and reluctantly ran for PRESIDENT because the other fella was an ISOLATIONIST wanting to drag USA backwards

IKE implanted USA INTER-STATE HIGHWAYS odd runs north-south-even runs east-west... i drove them a bunch when PETER FONDA made a cool road movie

so that iconic road system goes back almost 80 years... same for most other infrastructure in USA- AIRPORTS-ROADS-WATER PIPES-ELECTRIC GRID

CHINA AND ASIA has NEW INFRASTRUCTURE

BECAUSE the top officers and shareholders want to maximize profits they "outsourced" making stuff to 3rd world shite holes ...mainly peoples republic ...who has taken the money and now has an economy closing in on USA...

PEOPLES REPUBLIC has a NEW COAST GUARD ARMED LIKE WAR SHIPS THEY MENACE THER NEIGHBORS AND USA AND HAVE MISSILES...THEY CIRCLED THE SENKUKU ISLANDS OFF JAPAN FOR 200 STRAIGHT DAYS...AND SAME TAIPEI which they will swallow whole real soon just like they gobbled HONG KONG and are now defacating the pieces

so how can USA REPLACE-REPAIR our almost 100 year old infrastructure ?

MR NATURAL is stumped

AQI 35 this AM in my forest...breath in breath out Airnow.gov
 
and back to the watches...the DIRENZO has a really nice head TWSS

cushion case brushed SS and multi-layer chamfering on a wide bracelet...very nice IMHO
 

Bolt Case, Bright Colors, Brave Decisions: Direnzo DRZ 02R Aerolite / Watch Review​

Direnzo is presenting their next watch: The Direnzo DRZ 02R is a reduced form of the old DRZ 02. Again we have a super-innovative case with bolt forms. The dial sports the typical Direnzo design, with amazing colors and very cool hands. The watch brings also some built quality: Sapphire crystal and a Sellita caliber together with a hardened bracelet.

 
That black one is so different from the others that for me is really appealing.
PAINT IT BLACK is a GR8 color way to pop the AERO design ...good hunting

case multi-plane CNC brush machining looks sweet, big knurled crown would luv to finger , and wide bracelet rig gives gr8 support like a bra on JANE MANSFIELD's hooters ( a bunch of famous photos catches SOPHIA LOREN oogling them fun bags )

-black is the color that gives ScottyB a clean read the wrist clock at an instant glance

Future classic? Current classic? Sent to us by aliens? I don't care, this thing is great. So much detail, so much effort, so much love, for really not so much money when you think about it. The looks are not goign to appeal to everyone, but they clearly appeal to me. Cheers, Jody
