echo/neutra Rivanera Piccolo “Rosa d’Epoca” Time+Tide Studio Edition
This article highlights the echo/neutra Rivanera Piccolo “Rosa d’Epoca” as a personal favourite from the FounderFest collection, praising its contemporary take on a classic rectangular design. The watch features a titanium case, a pink dial accent, and a Sellita SW1000 automatic movement, offering a distinct aesthetic inspired by 1980s indie band album art.
- Available at FounderFest from September 19
- Globally online at the Time+Tide Shop during a 24hr window beginning on September 22
The Rivanera Piccolo's slender 6.9mm-thick case is 3mm larger in length and width than the original 1917 Cartier Tank.
The grade 5 titanium case features a fine-grain sandblasted finish with thin mirrored bevels on the brancards.
The dial text and central hands are rendered in pink, contrasting with the dark grey dial and case, and the minutes track is sectored to serve as hour indexes.
A date complication at 6 o'clock with a white-on-black disc maintains dial symmetry.
The colour palette is inspired by monochromatic album art punctuated with sharp points of colour, often used by Indie bands from the mid-1980s to the 2000s.
It comes with a black rubber strap and an exclusive grey suede strap with rose-coloured stitching.
The reviewer notes it satisfies a desire for a Tank Normale-style watch without the high cost or plain dial, appreciating the contemporary design, titanium, finishes, and colour palette.
