Clash of colors, power of know-how. Here is the whole spirit of Rebellion and Label Noir’s collaboration. It’ the matchup of two minds, two personalization virtuosi. For 15 years, the independent Swiss watch brand Rebellion, with its automotive DNA, has been renowned for its racy and challenging designs. As a fan of extreme customization of its iconic timepieces, Rebellion is especially keen on daring collaborative ventures.
The outcome is unexpected, as rich as a sharing of exoticism, as if two cultures were dancing around a fire. Rebellion’s emblematic sporty piece becomes warm, exotic. Label Noir’s signature minimalism moves it into a festive, heady, full-on painting, like a Macau night.
The interpretation starts with the indexes, yellow and red, glowing like flames, which circle the time display, hour, minute and small second. The central hands are tense like swords, red, slightly different from the original hands, in baton shape with a peak, in order to further increase the voltage. Then the case, which seems to be hewn out of a lava shard, yellow, red, black.
