Earlier this year, we launched the Apogee Karman Line, India's first space-qualified watch, adding a new chapter to the tradition of storytelling through world-class watches. Onmanorama highlighted this achievement, noting how our journey with the Apogee collection began as a tribute to the Indian space program. We meticulously designed and rigorously tested the Karman Line to withstand space-like environments, making it truly worthy of its ‘Indian space watch’ legacy.
We named our mission the Karman Line Project, which took two years of planning to address challenges like flight conditions and thorough ground testing to make sure our watches could handle space,” said our co-founder, Nirupesh Joshi. To celebrate this achievement, we produced 50 limited edition watches of Apogee Karman Line. Each watch features a special meteorite dial made from Muonionalusta meteorite, an ancient rock that is older than Earth.
Since we started in 2018, our goal has been to create world-class watches that tell modern Indian stories, connecting with fans in over 30 countries around the globe. Read the full story here.
