Description
The NO IDENTITY Daytonoid Panda is a bold reinterpretation of the classic racing chronograph, viewed through the lens of artistic expression rather than mechanical orthodoxy. Part of the Daytonoid line inspired by paper watch artist Labeg, the watch takes familiar chronograph cues and reshapes them through altered proportions, sculptural geometry, and a deliberately unconventional visual language.
The Panda dial configuration brings clarity and contrast to the design, pairing a light base with darker sub-registers for immediate legibility. This high-contrast layout enhances the watch’s sporty character while maintaining a playful, contemporary edge.
The result is a chronograph that feels expressive yet wearable - a statement piece that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
Why We Curated This
- A design-forward reinterpretation of a classic racing chronograph
- High-contrast Panda dial for clarity and visual impact
- Artistic influence that prioritises personality over imitation
Design & Artistic Influence
The Daytonoid series draws from Labeg’s paper watch creations, where iconic watch designs are intentionally distorted, exaggerated, and rebalanced. In the Panda edition, this approach is expressed through an unconventional case shape and a layered dial layout that plays with symmetry without abandoning function.
Rather than replicating heritage chronographs, the Daytonoid Panda reimagines their spirit - capturing energy, motion, and attitude through form and contrast.
Movement & Functionality
The Daytonoid Panda is powered by a dependable chronograph movement (quartz), selected for its reliability and everyday usability. The dial layout incorporates multiple functional displays, including chronograph registers, day, date, and 24-hour indication, adding practical depth to the sculptural design.
It’s a functional platform that supports the watch’s expressive exterior without complication.
On the Wrist
Despite its bold design language, the Daytonoid Panda wears comfortably and confidently. The contrasting dial ensures readability at a glance, while the sculpted case offers a strong presence without feeling excessive.
This is a watch for those who enjoy sport-inspired design with a sense of humour and individuality.
