The Third Perspective is a cinematic 3D watch design project created to explore product visualization, brand storytelling, and realism through high-fidelity modeling. Inspired by industrial-grade timepieces, this personal concept focused on crafting every detail—from engraved dials and bevel edges to brushed metal reflections and internal gear mechanics. Beyond the functional form, the design aimed to evoke emotion through lighting, camera angles, and branding cues. The name and engraved typography reinforce the futuristic, almost alien theme—melding modern luxury with conceptual depth. Each render tells a different story—be it cosmic, minimal, or lifestyle—making the watch feel both aspirational and tangible.
