NEW INDIE BRAND BLOCK RG LAUNCHES BOLD “STEALTH” WATCH INSPIRED BY FIGHTER JETS
The world of luxury watches just got a daring new player. Meet Block RG, an independent brand that’s breaking all the rules of traditional watchmaking with its futuristic designs.
Founded by watch entrepreneur Romas Gimbutis, Block RG brings together a team of creative minds set on exploring uncharted territory in horology. Their mission? To craft radical, technical watches that look and feel like nothing else on the market.
Leading the charge is their debut timepiece: the Block RG Stealth. Designed by the talented duo Fabrice Gonet & Olivier Leu of Edge Design in Lausanne, this watch takes heavy inspiration from science fiction and iconic stealth aircraft like the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk.
Much like the fighter jets that inspired it, the Stealth watch stands out with its aggressive, angular shape and sharp lines. Its bold case features flat surfaces that create a geometric, almost spacecraft-like silhouette. Multiple sapphire crystals are seamlessly integrated, offering intriguing views into the watch’s skeletonized movement — a mechanical marvel that feels like peering inside the engine of a high-tech machine.
Beyond just looks, the Stealth embodies Block RG’s philosophy of pushing boundaries. It’s not just a timekeeper; it’s a statement of advanced engineering and fearless design.
With this first launch, Block RG is clearly on a mission to redefine modern watchmaking — proving that in a world full of classic round watches, there’s still plenty of room for bold innovation.
