In a swirl of sapphire glass mimicking electric-blue Curaçao and luminous citrus accents recalling Triple Sec, Out of Order® unveils its Angelo Azzurro Automatic GMT – Ultra Brushed – a 130-piece limited edition that bottles the golden age of Italian mixology. This timepiece pays homage to the 70s-90s era when cocktails like the namesake Blue Angel (gin, Triple Sec, Curaçao) turned bars into laboratories of sensory experimentation.
The gradient dial shifts hues like sunlight through a highball glass, while the bi-directional bezel mirrors the drink’s aromatic intensity. Flip the watch to find a laser-engraved Martini coupe and the brand’s rebellious “treat me bad” mantra – a wink to living life (and wearing watches) unapologetically.
Powered by the robust Seiko NH34A automatic movement with GMT complication, the 40mm case pairs with a polished H-link bracelet for understated elegance.
“This watch is about embracing life’s intensity,” shares Riccardo Torrisi, Out of Order®’s creative director, as the brand returns to GPHG‘s Challenge category after previous nominations – proving that horology, like a perfect cocktail, thrives on bold experimentation.
The essence: Much like the Blue Angel cocktail that inspired it, this timepiece isn’t merely functional – it’s a conversation starter blending horological precision with the irreverent spirit of Italian aperitivo culture. In a world of safe designs, Out of Order® continues to shake things up.
