Krayon unveils the groundbreaking Anyday, the world’s first mechanical planner watch, designed to display an entire month at a glance. With its innovative mechanism, Anyday rolls forward month after month, year after year, without any need for technical intervention, making time management intuitive and effortless. This revolutionary timepiece redefines the concept of calendar complications, offering a functional yet sophisticated way to organize one’s time.
The watch’s dial continuously displays each day and date for the full month, offering a comprehensive view of the upcoming month in a clear and accessible format. In a single glance, the wearer can see the entire month’s span, a feature that sets Anyday apart from traditional timekeeping. This innovative design is not just about tracking time – it’s about mastering your schedule with a practical, modern approach to time management, ideal for both work and personal life.
Encased in an elegant 39 mm 18K white gold case with a slim 9.5 mm profile, Anyday houses a sophisticated movement comprising 378 components, all seamlessly working to display time and organize your life. On the dial, one can see the days of the week in navy blue, with weekends subtly highlighted in a different shade. A preview of the next month’s first four days at the bottom of the dial, providing forward visibility. A crescent moon marker that tracks the day’s progress, adding a poetic element to the calendar’s rhythm.
The materials used in Anyday enhance its performance and elegance with three lightweight discs—sapphire, aluminum, and open-worked titanium—to ensure smooth transitions; two hand-decorated discs, painted by a Swiss artist, display the day and date; and the 18K white gold case is complemented by finely crafted hands and a beautiful guilloché dial with Krayon’s signature "Y" pattern, adding a traditional craft touch to the contemporary design.
Krayon, known for its exceptional calendar complications that explore our connection with natural cycles, continues to innovate with Anyday. Following the success of its Everywhere and Anywhere timepieces, Krayon introduces Anyday, which combines cutting-edge mechanics with user-friendly functionality, offering a fresh take on calendar watches. Unlike traditional calendar watches, Anyday continuously displays the entire month’s days and dates and transitions between months automatically, without requiring intervention.
This distinctive approach offers a clean and uncluttered calendar view, balancing visual clarity with ease of use. The watch updates its calendar automatically at the end of each month, following a 31-day cycle. Only five quick annual adjustments via the crown are needed for months with 28 or 30 days, ensuring seamless operation without the need for further adjustments for decades.
The Anyday watch features a pioneering 378-component movement that includes two revolutionary cams—a first in horology. Imagine glancing at your wrist and seeing not only the time but also a complete view of your entire month, offering a snapshot of your days with intuitive ease. The moon-shaped date indicator jumps at midnight each day, powered by an intricate cam system that accumulates energy over 24 hours, releasing it with remarkable precision.
Anyday is a perfect balance of simplicity and complexity. At first glance, it presents a clean, easy-to-read layout, but behind its elegance lies an intricate mechanical movement, composed of 378 hand-decorated components.
Anyday is the first mechanical timepiece to combine a complete calendar display with the functionality of day-to-day time management. Its unique design offers several impressive features:
Instant Day Jump: At midnight, the day advances automatically, powered by a cam that stores energy over 24 hours and releases it in a fraction of a second.
Seamless End-of-Month Transition: The calendar automatically shifts from the 31st to the 1st. For shorter months, a simple manual adjustment via the crown ensures precision.
Five-Week Cycle: The watch’s calendar operates on a 35-position cycle, showing the full month along with the next four days.
Intuitive Adjustments: The crown allows for easy date, day, and time adjustments, offering a robust yet user-friendly experience.
Inside the Anyday movement, two cams control the time and date transitions, creating a unique mechanical flow with a cam that powers the day’s jump at midnight and a larger cam that moves the date forward with precision at the end of each month.
Anyday encapsulates Krayon’s philosophy of creating innovative complications that are as practical as they are sophisticated. With its simple yet intuitive interface, Anyday transforms how we experience time with easy manual adjustments that anyone can make in a movement designed for reliability and longevity and a harmonious balance of design and mechanical complexity.
