From the outset, its guiding idea has been that watches are not merely tools for measuring time, but objects that can express their owners’ values and their relationship with the world around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"517\" data-end=\"839\"\u003eThe brand’s philosophy is rooted in the desire to give watches deeper meaning by bringing together watchmaking technology, artistic craftsmanship, and a responsible approach to production. Awake therefore works with innovative materials, supports traditional craft techniques, and collaborates with master artisans across a range of disciplines around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"841\" data-end=\"1230\"\u003eOne of the brand’s defining features is its fusion of French design, Swiss watchmaking mechanics, and traditional Vietnamese artistry. This combination is behind the Sơn Mài collection, for example, which uses a historic lacquer technique practised in Vietnam for centuries and brings it into the world of modern mechanical watches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"1232\" data-end=\"1532\"\u003eAwake also positions itself as a brand committed to a responsible approach to production and materials. Since its beginnings, it has worked with recycled materials and sought to minimise the environmental footprint of its production without compromising on quality or design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"1534\" data-end=\"1812\"\u003eThe brand’s name—Awake—refers to the idea of becoming more aware of the value of time and the world around us. Each model is therefore designed to tell its own story, offering not only technical precision but also emotion and a distinctive character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"1814\" data-end=\"2073\"\u003eThrough this combination of contemporary design, traditional craftsmanship, and a modern approach to production, Awake has established a strong position among young independent watch brands in just a few years, attracting the attention of collectors and watch media around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AWAKE","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":59645057073500,"sku":"MPS-WATCH-AWAKE-FL-RB","price":75890.0,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/5479\/2540\/files\/AWAKESonMai-FrostedRoyalBlue-Packshot_0bb54653-ce9a-4a23-8dfc-84ec4aa21b04_jpg.webp?v=1792953164","url":"https:\/\/www.infinitywatches.cz\/en\/products\/awake-son-mai-frosted-leaf-royal-blue","provider":"INFINITY Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
