Paulin - Oh No Quartz (Red)

The OH no Modul is a collaboration between Paulin and the San Jose type foundry OH no. This partnership was born out of our mutual love of typography and our particular fondness for the font Obviously, used across Paulin’s identity. The watch was launched in California as part of San Francisco’s Wind Up Watch Fair. 

The expressive dial design references California’s design history, with a colour palette that takes cues from local design icons Sister Corita Kent and Saul Bass. In contrast to the uniform geometry of the original Modul, the dial features OH no’s free-form bespoke numerals. Their interlocking layout playfully tests legibility, with exaggerated emphasis on the 12, 3, 6 and 9. You can read more about OH no and the design process behind the collaboration here. 

Powering the watch is the reliable Swiss-made ETA 955.112 with an intricate blue and gold design. The case diameter is 35mm, with a choice between a vintage-style hesalite or premium machined sapphire box-crystal. At only 8.2mm thick, it’s a comfortable wear across a wide variety of wrist sizes.
