With a design that challenges traditional watchmaking the Xeric Leadfoot features a side-viewing display so that time can be read when your hands are on the steering wheel.

The two side dials can be used to display different time zones – home time and destination time for example. The large top dial also displays the time but in a one-handed Soloscope-style – the hand encircles the hour while pointing to the minutes as it moves along the timing arcs.
